Amy Dua

Amy Dua was born and raised in Buffalo, New York, with a loving and supportive family and a mother who always told her that with hard work she could accomplish anything. Amy has always adored children, and in fact Amy's grandfather used to refer to her as the "pied piper of children" because of how she always played and engaged with all of the kids at family gatherings. Amy had been writing poetry, greeting cards and even speeches for family members, and others upon request since she was a little girl and dreamed of one day writing greeting cards for Hallmark.

Putting that aspiration aside as a hobby, Amy attended the State University of New York-College at Brockport for her undergraduate degree and went on to attend law school at Michigan State University. She and her husband opened a private practice where Amy began to focus her law practice in the area of juvenile law, representing hundreds of children in the abuse and neglect system, as well as, in juvenile delinquency matters. After a number of years she continued representing children, in addition to incapacitated adults, and developmentally disabled individuals in guardianship matters as well. After having their fourth child, Amy decided with the support of her husband that she would publish the beautiful children's book that she had written. Each of her four children helped in different ways in the illustrating and publishing of her first book, "Woe is Me...It's Autumn. Amy could never have accomplished her dream of writing and illustrating without the love, support and encouragement of her husband. As Amy has been a child advocate her entire legal career, as well as, in her personal life and beyond, Amy hopes to inspire children everywhere to read and have fun learning in the process. Amy is beyond excited for parents, teachers, and loved ones to be able to sit down and read her books to the little ones in their lives.
