About Us
INSPIRE. EDUCATE. NORMALIZE
Welcome to Sugar Cookie Books where we believe diverse children's books inspire, educate, and normalize diverse experiences and people. Founded by Tiffany Obeng, a passionate children's book author, lawyer and EO [Equal Opportunity] professional, our mission is to create a world where all children, regardless of race or background, see themselves represented in literature, so they may be inspired to pursue their dreams and aspirations.
At Sugar Cookie Books, we specialize in publishing children's books featuring African American characters in everyday situations. By filling this crucial gap in literary media, we aim to humanize our Black girls and boys and empower young readers. Through our efforts, we envision a more inclusive and equitable society where every child feels valued, accepted, and safe.
Committed to excellence, authenticity, and social impact, we create engaging and educational content that explores exciting career paths, promotes STEM education, and celebrates the beauty and strength of our culture and heritage. Together, let's inspire the next generation to dream big, embrace diversity, and shape a brighter future for all.
