There's also a deeper purpose behind the book, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting A21.

Proceeds will also go towards Riley’s Children’s Hospital, an award-winning pediatric hospital in Indianapolis, as well as Tracy's Kids, an art therapy program for children.

The Second Lady is no stranger when it comes to children’s education. She's also a strong advocate for art therapy.

The former teacher and award-winning artist told CBN News, “What we’ve found is art therapy can be used for anyone who’s experiencing trauma." Pence has been involved with children battling deadly illnesses like cancer. And she said art therapy has broader uses as well.

“But it’s also something that can be used and very effectively with wounded warriors who are going through PTSD,” she added. “It’s very effective with people who have eating disorders. It can be used for grief counseling.”

The book is scheduled for release in March of next year.
