–(PR.com)– Diana
Sarandos-Suttle,
who
lives
in
Pasadena,
California,
has
completed
her
new
book,
“I
Know
I’m
a
Bird,
But
I
Love
to
Dance”:
a
memorable
children’s
story
that
centers
on
Lila,
a
colorful
personality
with
a
contagious
enthusiasm
for
dancing.
She
moves
forward
with
her
dream
in
spite
of
the
naysayers
who
try
to
deter
her.
Her
passion
for
dance
leads
her
on
a
beautiful
journey,
where
she
quickly
learns
what
curiosity,
determination,
and
hard
work
can
achieve.
Not
only
does
she
fulfill
her
own
dream,
but
she
also
invites
new
friends
into
her
world,
while
awakening
them
to
their
own
talents.

Author
Diana
Sarandos-Suttle
has
served
as
a
docent
at
the
Scott
Gallery
of
American
Art
in
San
Marino,
California,
where
she
led
tours
for
children
from
elementary
to
high
school.
Diana
especially
cherished
working
with
young
children,
appreciating
their
uncensored
and
imaginative
thinking.
These
experiences
inspired
her
own
creative
endeavors,
including
her
artwork.

After
years
of
painting
and
working
as
a
gallery
art
consultant,
Diana’s
passion
shifted
toward
creative
writing,
especially
children’s
stories.
Encouraged
by
an
elementary
school
teacher
friend,
Diana
read
her
stories
to
third-grade
classes,
finding
the
children
receptive
and
insightful.
Receiving
handwritten
thank-you
notes
and
drawings
from
students
confirmed
her
calling
to
inspire
young
minds,
and
she
was
deeply
moved
when
some
children
shared
that
she
motivated
them
to
become
writers.

Diana’s
diverse
experiences
in
art
school,
as
a
docent,
and
as
an
art
consultant
have
culminated
in
her
role
as
a
storyteller
for
children.
She
strives
to
produce
work
with
heartfelt
messages.
Her
motto
is
“If
I
sometimes
laugh
or
cry
a
little
while
creating,
I
know
that
I’m
producing
good
work.”

Diana
writes,
“Lila
didn’t
let
them
get
her
down.
As
she
took
off
in
flight,
she
heard
some
music
coming
from
a
building
and
flew
in
to
have
a
look.
Lila
sat
on
the
windowsill
and
saw
a
dance
class
in
session.
They
were
doing
ballet.
Lila
was
intrigued
as
she
watched
the
students
and
the
elegant
instructor.”

She
continues,
“Each
day,
Lila
would
stop
and
watch
the
dance
sessions.
One
day,
it
was
ballet,
the
next
was
modern
jazz,
the
next
was
contemporary,
and
so
on.
This
went
on
for
months.
After
each
class,
Lila
would
practice
everything
that
she
had
learned.”
