“I just don’t feel like the education was there from school, family, anything… Money just wasn’t a topic people talk about.”
This week, Parker chats with Brooke Van Sickle about her financial journey.
Brooke is the owner & founder of Journey to Kidlit, the online resource that teaches thousands of aspiring children’s book writers from over 35 countries around the world about how to write and publish a children’s book based on her own award-winning writing journey. She’s also the owner of BiblioKid Publishing, an American hybrid publishing house that specializes in producing quality books for kids.
As the senior editor of BiblioKid Publishing, Brooke has helped over 30 titles go on to receive 5-star reviews from children’s book professional sites like Reader’s Favorite, Reader’s Choice, and Mom’s Choice. She’s also an award-winning picture book author, whose book received the 2020 Distinguished Favorite Preschool Picture Book.
