But Guess What! I Can Think for Myself. (New Edition)

Judy Campbell is a Detroit native and has a bachelor's degree in Child Development with a minor in Art from Marygrove College. She grew up in and attended the Detroit Public School System. Her desire to write children's books came after beginning to read at the tender age of eight. Her creativity has taken her into designing, painting, and exploring other arts while going to college. Mrs. Campbell currently, as of the publishing of her first book, is disabled and cannot teach in a traditional classroom, but a professor shared the idea of writing children's books as a way of teaching.The idea for "But Guess What?" came from listening to a popular radio show talking about parents smoking pot with their children. A number of people who called in said it was okay to do. One mother offered marijuana to her young son after he did his homework to relax. There was only one protester who called in, a teacher, saying that she disagreed with them. This created a burning desire in me to create "But Guess What? I Can Think for Myself." The book is designed to guide children in dealing with being confronted with using unethical drugs and other social issues the right way.
