At age 10 they won a writing/coloring contest. From this time in1971, Selina began drawing cartoon characters which Cynthia would create stories for. By 1978, they had a collection of stories, poems, and illustrations.
Selina's creation of Leafy G was a fun, exciting, effective way of teaching her young daughter and later other children manners, morals, kindness, compassion and generosity.
Cynthia Grimmett published her first collection of poems Never Cry Alone in1994. Leafy G and Sissy carries a similar message...the importance of cultivating true friendships.view less
