She currently resides in Windsor, Ontario, with her husband and at least one too many dogs. Inspired by her mother, she discovered storytelling at a young age. Children and adults know her best as her clown character, “Sparkles the Clown”.” Her occupation in health care and her career as a children’s entertainer inspired the author to develop a superbly illustrated children’s story that children with physical and cognitive challenges could relate to. Ultimately, all children will see reflections of themselves in the colorful pages. Teresa’s devotion to children of all ages is evident throughout the creative process of this book.
