Hello, my name is Mélissa…

Hello, my name is Mélissa…

Born and raised in France, I am of Beninese origin by my father and Malian/Guinean by my mother.

Feeling a deep need to help the afro-descendant community stop seeing their lives through a Western prism, I decided to start writing books for children.

Allowing our future leaders to know, from a young age, the greatness of their heritage is for me one of the most effective ways to accomplish this mission.

My books are therefore both educational and entertaining, in order to ensure the most efficient learning experience!

And because it is important for me to give back to the community, 10% of the profits from the sales of my books are donated to non-profit organizations operating in the fields of education, health and infrastructure in the Afro populations.

A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots.
