Benjamin Ingram Jr.

Benjamin Ingram Jr. is an 18-year-old author and entrepreneur dedicated to creating meaningful and engaging stories for children. He made his debut with Quentin and The New Friend, a children’s book inspired by a real-life experience that shaped his understanding of friendship, empathy, and inclusion.

Driven by a passion for representation and storytelling, Benjamin is the creator of the upcoming “Quentin” series — a growing collection of books centered around Quentin Jr. and his world. Through this series, he aims to give children stories where they can see themselves, learn important life lessons, and feel empowered. His work also raises awareness for Fragile X syndrome, promoting compassion and understanding, especially during Diversity Month and beyond.

This is only the beginning. The Quentin series will continue to expand with new stories, characters, and adventures, building a universe designed to inspire the next generation.
