A trailblazer and visionary for character education and women, Madi Franquiz has been at the forefront of cultural trends and ground-breaking literacy and education advocacy for four years.
A study by Florida State University found that just 7.5% of nearly 6,000 picture books published in a ten year span depict female protagonists. When reading this statistic, Madi was burdened by it. She is passionate about demonstrating to girls that God created them on purpose for purpose. They have everything they need in Jesus to lead passionate and purposeful lives- it is time they see it. Madi has created female characters who are strong leaders. Furthermore, Madi loves to share stories that inspire character. She writes about essential character traits in everyday language so that youth, families, churches, leaders and individuals of all ages can lay a foundation for better character. This includes leveraging resources based on years of experiences, new technologies and strategic partnerships.
Since 2019, Madi has written or co-authored eight children's books, including Priyah and the Magic Pen and The Gems in Your Crown: Sapphire. Madi’s books have been translated into four different languages including Arabic and Chinese.
Today, Madi is currently working on her second novel. She is excited to share it with you soon.
