Storyteller . Author
Kenzi Dodd wrote Wilma the Wiggly Worm from a place of genuine care and purpose. Her passion for the story comes not only from creativity but from a desire to make a difference, no matter how small, for children and families who read it.
A lifelong lover of books, Kenzi believes stories are one of the most powerful tools for helping children understand themselves and the world around them. Through Wilma, she wanted to show that struggles are normal, comparison is unnecessary, and individuality is something to embrace.
Her goal was never to write a perfect character, but a relatable one. Wilma feels frustrated, unsure, and disappointed before discovering her own value. That journey reflects what many children experience every day.
Kenzi hopes that at least one child, or one family, finds comfort, confidence, and reassurance within these pages. If Wilma helps a reader feel less alone or more accepted, then the story has done exactly what it was meant to do.
