And So You Were Born is founded on the belief that a positive future begins with the education of children today. Written by Mona Parsa, the underlying motivation behind the work is the passion for promoting creation of a world in which tolerance and understanding prevail. This vision of the future will best flourish with a learned class of citizens—which begins with our younger generations today.
The book's principles were brought to life with the illustrations of Nidra N. Kilmer, who creates magical, multicultural, and inspired art for children. Nidra spends her time in America and overseas teaching free art workshops for kids, using art as a means to nourish within their hearts a love for their heritage.
