Founder and Author: Isabel J.

Nine-year-old Isabel J’s original story, Izzy and the Candy Palace, is a playful adventure that follows a young girl as she tries to stop a well-meaning candy monster from blanketing her town with candy. Izzy quickly realizes excess can lead to disaster and eventually this spirited and precocious girl provides a thoughtful solution. Isabel wrote the story with the sole purpose of raising funds to help feed hungry children in her community. Per Isabel’s wish, 100% of the profits from every book sold will be donated to the Kids Cafe program of the Second Harvest Food Bank. Isabel hopes that through her creativity and artistic expression, she is able to help provide funds so no child will go to bed hungry.

When not writing, Isabel enjoys skateboarding, tennis, playing drums and spending time with her Labradoodle named Ziggy.
