Elizabeth Javidan
Elizabeth Javidan is a teacher-turned-author who loves books so much, she decided to write one. An award-winning newspaper columnist and avid book listener, Javidan has culminated her passion for equal rights, twentieth-century dystopian novels, and rhythmic poetry into her debut children’s book, Roly-Poly Prole. After encountering dozens of stories about life, hardship, and what it means to never give up on a dream of happiness, Javidan wanted to honor and congratulate those who, like her character, challenged what they knew was wrong and chose to persevere. In her “spare time,” Javidan enjoys cooking, exercising, drinking copious amounts of coffee, and keeping up with her really, really cool kids.
