About Our Family

Margie is an Author from Australia who has worked as a children’s English teacher in Japan and Italy, whilst also working in over ten different countries as a Tour Guide and Exercise Physiologist before currently settling down in the USA with her husband Roger who is currently Active Duty in the Marine Corps.

Margie and Roger met in Japan whilst she was an English Teacher and he was stationed at the Marine Corps base nearby. Margie’s time as an English Teacher has been a great foundation for her new passion to write for children. Roger studied in both Japan and the USA before enlisting in the US Marine Corps. Roger’s mission is for his illustrations to reflect the world and its diversity and give children a reflection of themselves in books that he never had as an African American growing up.

Together Margaret and Roger have had a biracial son and wanted to make him books that feature main characters who not only look like him but also include a diverse range of characters from all different skin colors, genders, and abilities. In 2020 they successfully self-published their first Children’s picture book on Amazon My Santa, Your Santa.
