"Believe! is both engaging and empowering. Readers will find themselves wanting to learn more about the real life characters, their personalities, their contributions and their struggles as they reached for their dreams, while creating a belief in themselves that they can do the same.” -Elizabeth Obrey, author & Advocate, The Arc of the OzarKs

MEET LANDON KEMP:
The creative illustrator behind BELIEVEBooks©
LANDON KEMP is the kind of guy who never “grew out of” his love of cartoons. As a cartoonist, aspiring animator, and all-around pop culture nerd on the Autism/Asperger’s spectrum, he has spent four years living in Texas, studying up on animation and cartoon art and generally trying to make sense of a world that he feels has gone mad.
When not at work, he can be found watching animation, surfing the web, writing opinion articles, playing video games, listening to classic rock and 80s music, reading comics, and indulging in his love of 80s-90s pop culture (especially if it’s obscure,) cute animals, demented humor, and watching guys make fun of cheesy old movies and other media. He also believes in the value of picture books and especially their illustrations when it comes to helping children learn to read and appreciate visual art. He currently resides in Springfield, MO, and Believe is his first book.
