    About Norma and Shayna, Authors of Lovable Lucy

    Norma E. Roth is an author and mom to three children and to Lucy, the familyโ€™s fluffy pooch and inspiration for the Lovable Lucy Series. Norma writes the Lovable Lucy Series with Shayna Rose Penn, her eldest child.

    After having breast cancer, Norma decided to fulfill her childrenโ€™s dream of having a dog, secretly, she wanted one too! No stranger to childrenโ€™s books and encouraging an early love for reading and writing, Norma is delighted to create a childrenโ€™s book series that’s ideal for beginning readers and promotes kindness, confidence and inclusion.

    Bedtime stories were a ritual Norma initiated when her children were only a few weeks old and remain one of her fondest memories with her children. This ritual was enthusiastically shared by her husband. Norma and her husband taught each of their kids to read, exclaiming, โ€œReading is FUNdamental!โ€ She is elated that her children, now young adults, share her love of reading.

    Shayna Rose Penn is grateful to bring the Lovable Lucy Series to life alongside her mom, Norma Roth, and Adua Hernandez. Creating this series puts to use her years of working in live arts and entertainment.

    Creating Lovable Lucy Series for children, specifically early readers, is an exciting and daunting endeavor. An early and avid reader herself, Shayna has seen firsthand the value of combining reading skills with emotional and educational curricula for young children.
