Leah Henderson is a writer, mentor, and teacher. Her critically acclaimed books for young readers include Your Voice, Your Vote, The Courage of the Little Hummingbird, The Magic in Changing Your Stars, A Day for Rememberin’, and Together We March. Leah holds an MFA in Writing and is on faculty in Spalding University’s graduate writing program. She is also visiting faculty in Hollins University MFA program.
