About the Illustrator
Cynthia Bearheart - Cartoonist, is a Native American woman living in Santa Barbara, CA.Cynthia struggled with dyslexia as a child growing up attending Catholic schools. This is when she developed her talent as a cartoonist. Later in life Cynthia attended Santa Barbara City College and shared her talent with the Colleges newspaper, The Channels.
The Author, Tony Navarro met Cynthia in Santa Barbara while managing a Technology Facility. The two became instant friends. They share the same love for dogs and God. Cynthia told Tony that she believed they were meant to meet. She didn't know why at the time but knew they were supposed to do something together. Tony would share stories with Cynthia about his best friend, Leo. After Leo went over the Rainbow Bridge, Tony was left heart broken and felt a big loss in his life. That is when he decided to write a children's story dedicated to Leo. Cynthia was the first person to read Leo's Lesson. Tony asked Cynthia if she would create the Art for the book. At that moment, they both knew why Cynthia felt her feelings about this collaboration. And here it is, the start of a series of books inspired by Tony's own Labrador Retrievers with the first being, Leo's Lesson.
