Rachel August is a New Orleans native who now lives in Washington State. She grew up as a military dependent and is now a military wife herself. Traveling to new places through the many books Rachel read helped her develop a great imagination, and she says “she hopes to let those dreams continue.”

Rachel August’s newest children’s book for beginning readers introduces the sometimes new and unusual notion to young children that their mommies have real first names besides just being called “Mommy.”
