Proud to Be Me: A Rhyming Picture Book About Friendship, Self-Confidence, and Finding Beauty in Differences

Kim Farrell is the author of Proud to Be Me, a children's book about confidence, diversity, and acceptance. She is also the founder of The Confidence Loop, a publishing imprint and website that promotes healthy self-esteem in children. As a wellness program coordinator, mental health advocate and writer, she has published an array of articles on various health and wellness topics, in addition to several short stories. But her most prized accomplishment to date is becoming a mother to a beautiful baby boy named Tyler in 2022.​Kim lives in Pennsylvania with her husband, son, and rescue dog, who have all been sources of inspiration and support through the process of publishing her first children's picture book. When she is not working, writing, or cleaning up poop, you can find her hanging out with her family, creating Pinterest-fail home decor, or wandering aimlessly around Target (with coffee in hand).
