I am so excited to be welcoming my friend, Lisa Yu to the show today.

Lisa has always dreamed of being a writer and publishing books. She has a master's degree in Elementary Education and taught kindergarten and first grade for 6 years before becoming a full-time mom. She believes in treating children with respect and dignity, and embracing their curiosity of the world. They should be given the facts and guided to understand the world around them, for one day they will be adults. She feels passionately about sharing this message and hopes that her books will make a positive impact on children and their families.

The goal of My Parent's Job Children's Series is to showcase jobs and explain them on a level a child can understand. The books are meant to bridge the gap faster in a child's understanding of why a parent leaves for an extended period of time to go to work, (especially where professions keep parents away at night), and what they are doing during that duration. It is expressed in a way where a child feels proud of their parent, and come to an understanding that it's something they must do, while loving them all the while.

You can also purchase a copy of her books: My Daddy is a Firefighter and My Mommy is a Firefighter on her website: www.myparentsjob.com.
