The Story of a Friendship and a Dream |
||||
|
Once upon a time, there were two young girls. Leslie was spunky and good at reading and writing. Kathy was a little shy and artistic. |
|||
| In the first grade, Leslie saw a picture of a girl on swing that Kathy painted. She liked it so much, she told Kathy, "I'm going to write the books and you're going to do the illustrations." |  |
|||
| Many years passed and the two friends now lived miles apart, but the dream of writing remained in Leslie's heart. One day, she wrote several fables and sent them to Kathy. Leslie's stories taught lessons of truth and wisdom. Her words sang of the beauty in nature
Kathy picked up her paintbrush. She wanted the world to see the stories that came from Leslie's heart. Dragonflies, cowries, orchids, and gobies flowed from her brush. Kathy discovered the joy of painting, a hidden gift that Leslie's dream uncovered.

| Their friendship blossomed; together they write and illustrate award-winning books. And they are living happily ever after! |  |
