Stacey Smith is a mum of three young children, who along with her husband and brother, escaped the flood waters by getting onto their shed roof. Having worked in the social work sector for 14 years Stacey understands the impacts of trauma, and wanted to create a resource that parents could use to help support their own children in learning to cope with tough times. The Lucky Little Pig is also a way to give back to the community. 1000 books will be gifted to children affected by Cyclone Gabrielle and proceeds from the book will go to community organisations that support children's wellbeing.Deborah Hinde is an award-winning illustrator based in rural Waikato.
