Marvyn Harrison is a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion consultant and the founder of Dope Black Dads, a support group and podcast that works to challenge outdated stereotypes about Black fatherhood and cultivate a progressive, inclusive community of parents. He started Dope Black Dads on Father's Day 2018, when it was made up of him and his friends sharing experiences and challenges as Black fathers. Today, the organization is a diverse global collective that has reached tens of thousands of people across the United Kingdom, United States, and South Africa. Harrison lives in London and has two children, Blake and Ocean, who star in I Love Me! and with whom he does confidence-boosting affirmations every day. Diane Ewen is a UK-based illustrator of numerous picture books for young readers. Her illustrations--filled with characters that leap and cartwheel off the page--are hand-drawn in pencil, which she then paints in watercolor and acrylics before embellishing them digitally. Ewen loves the fact that the artwork is often the first thing that pulls children into a book, and she finds inspiration in the use of vibrant color. See less
