THE AUTHOR

Saving the Children!

As an educator and well-being specialist, Camellia has a genuine heart for the spiritual, psychological, social, and physical well-being of children. These traits are revealed in her "Me" series,
a collection of children's books that infuse children with high self-esteem and personal value.

MIGHTY ME!

MIGHTY ME! - The first book of this series to be published in April is a child awareness and self-esteem children's book that shows, with child-like world illustrations and scriptures, the strength and courage God ordains for children to have. Camellia's ingenious method of building the self-worth of each child is demonstrated in this work.

PERFECTLY ME!

PERFECTLY ME! - Another soon-to-be-published work of Mrs. McKinley. In this title, Camellia illustrates with child-like simplicity that each child is born with inherited traits that should never be considered as flaws in the eyes of any individual. Children can read this book, filled with illustrations and positive principles to further build their self-worth.

UNIQUELY ME!

UNIQUELY ME! - Is another work of the "Me" series. In this book, Camellia demonstrates to each child that they are uniquely designed by God. Mrs. McKinley, through picturesque illustrations, communicates to the world of children that it is okay to be different, and no two children are or should be exactly alike.

SABRINA ELLA!

The Heart and Soul of Camellia

Most of us have our earthly motivations. Sabrina Ella McKinley, the daughter of Camellia P. Wade-McKinley, and mother of Mecai Alexander, is the heart and soul of Camellia. With continual health challenges, Sabrina is, nevertheless, the strength of Camellia. Sabrina is cherished by her father and mother. Much, if not all, of the proceeds of Camellia's book sales, will go toward Sabrina's faith-walk to healing and wholeness. In so many ways, all will be blessed to invest in the MIGHTY ME! series.
