Person
Valerie Bolling is the author of Ride, Roll, Run: Time for Fun!; Together We Ride (which received starred reviews from Booklist and The Horn Book); and Let's Dance! (winner of an SCBWI Crystal Kite Award). In addition to being an author, Bolling has been an educator for 30 years. She is focused on bringing diverse literature to young readers and creating stories in which all children can see themselves and feel valued and validated. She loves dancing and music, so if a jam took place on her street in Stamford, Connecticut, Bolling and her husband (who plays the djembe) would definitely join in.

She takes pride in creating works that help others feel seen and inspired not only to see beauty in themselves, but to recognize and acknowledge that of others. She is the illustrator of Ride, Roll, Run and We Have a Dream: Meet 30 Young Indigenous People and People of Color Protecting the Planet. Khadija lives in Silver Spring, Maryland.
