Local Author Signed to Publish New Children's Book Daring Kids to Dream Big

    AURORA, CO, October 11, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Through the Eyes of Tre is a children's book that stars an African American boy who dreams big. His imagination drives him to be a police officer to a chef even a farmer.

"I have always had a passion for making the youth better and stronger," said Ellis, sharing her vision for the future of American youth. "They are never too young to dream. I hope they see that we need to give hope back into the community. In turn, this hope will build a stronger and productive young adult when they are older."

Published by Tate Publishing and Enterprises, the book will be available upon its release through bookstores nationwide, from the publisher at www.tatepublishing.com/bookstore, or by visiting barnesandnoble.com or amazon.com.
