​I've always believed that stories have the power to spark imagination, encourage kindness, and create lasting family memories. Combining my love of art, storytelling, and animals, I created JerriArt Books® to inspire children through adventure, learning, and heartwarming characters.

Many of my stories are inspired by the wonderful animals in my own life. Marshmallow, a real-life Labrador Retriever, and her daughter, Cream Cheese, have inspired many of my adventures together. Along with Tinsel the Cat™, Tucker the Turkey, Tater Tot, Old Glory, and many more lovable characters, they help bring each story to life with imagination, kindness, and heart.

Whether we're traveling through history with Old Glory, exploring the moon, celebrating holidays, discovering amazing machines, or simply enjoying everyday adventures, every book is created with the hope that children will smile, learn something new, and enjoy reading with the people they love.

As both the author and illustrator, I enjoy creating original artwork that brings each character to life. Every story begins with an idea, grows through illustration and imagination, and becomes an adventure that families can enjoy together.

Thank you for visiting JerriArt Books®. I hope these stories become part of your family's reading adventures for years to come.

❤️ Happy Reading!
