Evelyn S. Monroe is a proud mom of four and a lifelong lover of fresh fruit currently residing in North Carolina. A first-time author, she brings her passion for healthy eating and cultural learning to Alphabet Fruit Around the World. Evelyn has worn many hats-from homeschooling her children (two by choice and one by surprise!) to co-owning a farmers' market with her husband. While working in the healthcare field as a trainer and educator, she is also earning her Master of Public Health degree at George Washington University. Evelyn's favorite fruit bowl features honeydew melon, cantaloupe, golden kiwi, and blueberries-a colorful mix as vibrant as the children and fruits in her debut book.
