Biography

Back in 2004, after being shushed one too many times for laughing loudly in public, we created the laugh-friendly company®. Our business is truly a family affair. We're creative-junkie sisters eager to bring to life the magical world of a sweet little girl called Nana Star created by our grandmother years ago. Entrepreneurs at heart, in order to introduce children to Nana Star, we became picture book authors, publishers, and members of that illustrious band of trend-setting businesswomen: mompreneurs.

Since founding ee, that's "double e," by the way, we've expanded the world of Nana Star to include a picture book series, character plushies, and an award-winning companion web site.

Upcoming Works

  • There are at least eight more Nana Star books in the works, along with accompanying toys/plush characters from each book.

Causes I Support

  • We have our own foundation, the Nana Star Foundation, where a portion of all profits from Nana Star books and merchandise goes directly to the foundation, which supports inner-city education awareness and terminally ill children.   www.nanastar.com 

    We are also Corporated Sponsors for Marines Toys for Tots, support the following as well:
