Sade is a published children’s author and educationist. Her picture book fascination was ignited by Sir Quentin Blake’s visit to a school where she taught in the early 90s. Her passion for literacy enhancement initiatives and in giving back to society, led to her conceptualizing and convening CALFE – a Children and Authors’ annual Fanfare. Her love for community motivated her three-year voluntary service at Essex Library Services.
