Natasha Govender lives in Durban, South Africa with her husband, two young children, and a cat named Kipling (yes, Rudyard Kipling). She holds a Master’s Degree in Marine Biology and when she is not saving her little part of the planet from environmental degradation, she guides parents through the world of children’s literature over cups of hot tea.  She is a huge proponent of reading diverse books that celebrate the whole human experience so that all children can see themselves and their lived experiences in literature and through this, find delight in reading.
