About Us
"Growing up, libraries were my window to the world. Books taught me about different cultures, values, and experiences. However, I often struggled to find stories that reflected my own background and the diversity of the world around me. This realization fueled my passion to write and publish stories that every child can see themselves in.
At Walker Time Tales, we believe that every child deserves to see their own stories told. Our books are crafted with love and a deep respect for the cultural heritage that shapes our identities. I am proud to share these stories with you and hope they inspire the next generation to embrace their heritage, celebrate diversity, and face life's challenges with courage and resilience."

Walker Time Tales Publishing LLC is more than a publishing company; it is a movement to empower children through stories that reflect their world. Walker Time Tales ventured into multimedia content creation, most notably through its sports inspiration Instagram account @jalentwalkertime. This platform has grown to amass around 30,000 followers, where the company shares behind-the-scenes insights, stories of resilience and training content for aspiring athletes. This engagement has allowed Walker Time Tales to connect with a broader audience, reinforcing its mission to inspire, educate, and celebrate diversity through every story told.
