Kamora the Courageous: Into the Trolls’ Den

Kamora (known as Kami) is no ordinary chameleon. She’s not timid. She can’t camouflage. And most importantly, she’s obsessed with adventure and re-discovering the dragons that once guarded her forest against trolls. But bravery and curiosity are far from acceptable chameleon traits, especially to her overprotective father.

When Kami spots what she’s convinced is a dragon crash land in the distance, she’s determined to rescue it. But when nearby trolls, attracted by the sound, pass through her village, Kami finds herself on a mission to save her father after he tragically falls into the hands of the dangerous creatures.

Kamora the Courageous is a fun and humorous adventure about bravery, family, and self-actualisation.

My Why:

Unfortunately, I grew up in a highly toxic environment with an abusive father. And so, books became not just a method of escapism, but my greatest tool for survival. While confined to those circumstances, stories allowed me to learn, grow, find adventure, and build a lifetime of experiences.

I have since been fortunate enough to free myself from that part of my life. My greatest ambition is to now pass that gift on by contributing my own original stories about growth, confidence and love to the world. If my stories could help even one person experience a fraction of the catharsis I have found in fiction, I would be an extremely proud author and illustrator. Kami is one such story that I feel has all of these attributes and more.
