The Adventures of the Bureau of the Missing Socks

Millicent (Millie) Sutton is a pediatrician, mother, and a first-time author. She lives in Westchester County in New York. As an extremely imaginative and curious child growing up in the rural south, she often dreamt of faraway places and entertained herself conjuring up fantastical scenarios, creating stories around songs and music she heard on the radio. Old African American folklore and her love of the great American short story was her introduction to creative writing and storytelling. But it was the simple bedtime reading rituals with her daughter that rekindled a love of classic children’s tales that began her venture as an author of children’s literature.
