Lizzie, a local talent from the Philadelphia area, is an illustrator, professor, and now a writer eager to share her writing journey with our students. If you'd like to support this emerging artist and have a book for your child to sign, we are accepting pre-orders and purchasing through Inkwood Books, an independent bookstore located in Haddonfield, NJ.

Matthew Forsythe meets Richard Scarry in this stunning debut that celebrates embracing your voice and finding a place in your community!

In a town bursting with music, everyone marches to the beat of their own drum. Except for a quiet mouse named Bell, who doesn’t yet know what her sound is. She tries honking, tooting, strumming, even tapping, just like she hears her neighbors doing. But none of it feels quite right! None of it feels like Bell. Figuring out her place in the village, it turns out, might just mean finding her own voice first. 

Lizzy O’Donnell’s sumptuous storytelling delicately demonstrates that we find true harmony within our communities when we embrace our truest selves.
