About The Author
Dr. Carla M. Pennington has had a passion for communication since she learned to talk, which inspired her to earn an Associate's Degree in Telecommunication; a Bachelor's Degree in Communication & Information Sciences; a Master's Degree in Advertising & Public Relations; and a Doctorate Degree in Management & Leadership. Dr. Pennington is the owner of Prestigious Communication, a virtual consulting firm specializing in leadership and team engagement. She has taught virtual English classes to students in China and currently teaches a public relations course at the collegiate level; which inspired her passion to introduce creative learning tools for children and adult learners with disabilities.
During Dr. Pennington’s class session with her younger virtual students, her dog, Mr. Polo became the star of the class during show and tell. As a creative and innovative approach, Dr. Pennington started an Instagram page for Mr. Polo and he made friends fast. During the 2020 COVID pandemic, Dr. Pennington documented Mr. Polo's adventures with his toy fish and discovered the opportunity to teach kids how to read and communicate by writing a children's book. She also hopes this book encourages adult learners with disabilities to never give up on reading.
