About Strawberryhead & Gingerbread

Strawberryhead & Gingerbread enjoy writing children’s books to teach about friendship, inclusivity, social skills, and all the challenges children face through the adventures we know as life. These life experiences can be viewed as steppingstones to joy, peace, and harmony.

They want you to know differences in children are to be celebrated–an important lesson for children to grasp, and while many children easily embrace this message, others may appear to be not so welcoming, especially at an early age.

So, the series is perfect for kids of all ages and abilities looking to experience the sweet treat of reading and enjoy a fun-filled day of adventure!

KF Wheatie

KF Wheatie, nicknamed Strawberryhead, was diagnosed with autism as a child. KF has a strong faith and works hard in school. She is a 2024 college graduate with a B.A. in Fine Arts and Music Minor. KF makes it her mission to make new friends as often as possible. She plays the flute in a church band and is also a classically trained professional harpist. Her hobbies include art, Broadway, and travel.

KM Wheatie

KM Wheatie is nicknamed Gingerbread. Because he looked like a cookie to his mother when he was little, she always pretended to take a bite out of him. His sister KF was sure that her brother would grow back after their mother took a bite out of him. Diagnosed with autism at a very young age, KM preferred to play alone as a child. It was not that he did not want to interact with other kids; he did not have the social skills necessary to play with them. He turned his love of map reading into a serious hobby. He is a 2024 college graduate with a B.S. in Environmental Science (GIS) and Art Minor. His hobbies include riding roller coasters, travel, and hiking.
