Author Mrs Shepherd aims to write an inspiring and uplifting book that both adults and kids can understand and can remind them that being true to oneself is a great way to embrace confidence, positivity and acceptance. To The Beat of My Own Drum is a volume for all ages that warms the heart and lifts the spirit with a touch of humour. The overall themes are being true and staying in touch with one's self.
This narrative takes place inside the reader's imagination, feelings and personality. While the character is semi-autobiographical, it is meant to be easily relatable to all readers. The character has a cute, funny, human quality that encourages readers to look into their own lives and sense of self. The illustrations are unique and original. They possess a sense of humour that is conveyed to the reader. The story is both relevant to today's society while being meaningful to individuals.
In this time and day and with the influence of media, many places still conjure pressure on individuals to act and look certain ways. Through To The Beat Of My Own Drum, readers will reap a sense of positivity, support and strength. They can think about their own lives and gain meaning about themselves. It is also a story that helps people of all ages get back in touch with who they really are. It tells them that despite all of the complications in life, they can still dance to the beat of their own drums.

About the Author
Mrs Shepherd has been drawing and making up stories for as long as she can remember. Mrs Shepherd's writing style comes from her experiences with mental health and how this affects moods, the way she takes on quirks, and views the world. She finds inspiration for her illustrative style in the people around her, the weird, wonderful folk she meets on her travels, and of course, from her own imagination.
