About the Author

Being a person of color (African American, Black, Negro), I have faced all of life misgivings, hatred, greed, jealousy, and most of all, bigotry. In a sense, this is a fairy tale, however, some of the things I have gone through in my life were similar to Kato's struggle, but I was still able to find that special someone who has provided me with the love and happiness that I was missing.
