Author Interview with Kale Sudhoff

Author Bio
My name is Kale Sudhoff and I am currently 19 years old and busy attending college and working as an Enrichment teacher at a local Preschool. I am a typical teenager hanging out with friends, but in my free time I loves to write and illustrate children’s books. I have written and illustrated three children’s books. In the Fall of 2020, when I was a Sophomore in High School, I released my first book, Danny the Duck Heads South, and in the Spring of 2022, when I was a Junior in High School, I released my second book, Danny and Kevin Conquer Camping. Throughout my school years, I have seen kids being excluded for being different or having a disability, so I wanted Danny and Kevin Conquer Camping to raise awareness for Limb Loss and Limb Difference.

My latest book, Stewart H. Quills and His Explosive Emotions was released in the Fall of 2023. I am on a mission to inspire children to thrive, regardless of their challenges. I am currently working on my next book to raise awareness for Hearing Loss. A portion of every book sale is donated to The Aktion Club, a local organization for people with disabilities. I am going to college to become an Elementary Education teacher and also hope to continue to pursue my passion of writing and illustrating children's books.
