She opted to create change in her community by infusing arts into learning, encouraging parents by showing them how to bring arts back into the home as well.

Through decades of experience, extensive research, and her personal story, GIVE ME BACK MY CRAYONS illustrates the value of trusting ourselves and reaching deep to find that creative genius living inside, while modeling for our children how to do the same. GIVE ME BACK MY CRAYONS offers a life changing method for unlocking the creative child and countering the very real issues of today. Look for her creativity planner, GIVE ME BACK MY CREATIVITY and her children's book, KATHERINE GRACE FINDS THE KEYS TO CREATIVITY will be released SPRING 2021.
