Janelle Harper is a Bronx native who proudly carries her New York accent anywhere she goes. She finds inspiration in city living and the diverse experiences of the African Diaspora. When she is not enjoying the hidden gems of the Bronx, she is traveling and exploring new cultures. She is a proud veteran public school teacher who comes from a long line of educators. She is passionate about creating stories that reflect the children in her Bronx classroom and neighborhood. When she’s not thinking about her next book, Janelle can often be found in her dance studio, blasting music, yelling “five-six-seven-eight,” and preparing elaborate student productions.

Praise for Salon Saturday by Janelle Harper and Charlot Kristensen:

"This book is perfect for a lapsit or storytime that focuses on littles finding beauty in themselves, community traditions, and connections to elders." —BCCB Reviews

"An upbeat introduction to a beloved rite of passage." —Kirkus Reviews

"A celebration of Black hair and the cultural tradition of crown care." —Booklist

“A showcase for the importance of a young Black girl’s first trip to the hair salon… the book also celebrates community, family, and self-love. A joyful celebration of both individuality and community.” —School Library Journal


Praise for My Block Looks Like by Janelle Harper and Frank Morrison:

*"The artist’s careful attention to detail and the shifting visual perspectives in action scenes bring Harper’s musical text to life. The narrator argues convincingly for the Bronx as 'the coolest place I’ve ever been,' where 'dreams rise higher than the smog' and neighbors 'sparkle under streetlamps.' A culturally rich and beautifully illustrated child’s-eye view of home." —Kirkus Reviews, starred review

*"Kinetic, portrait-filled art from Morrison (Breaking to the Beat!) reveals the neighborhood’s sights (double Dutch, the Icee man, pickup games), vibrantly conveying the essence of the protagonist’s home: "my city/ my hood/ my block. My home/ my village/ my family/ my friends/ my soul." —Publishers Weekly, starred review

* "Harper’s block (she hails from the Bronx) is alive, aptly called "my soul," and supported by Morrison’s images and warm colors, a refreshing invitation to visit or imagine this vivid, memorable place." —The Horn Book, starred review

"Dynamic details and an expansive sense of possibility . . . A caring depiction of urban life that will resonate with listeners who love the bustling energy and beauty of the place they call home." —BCCB Reviews

"Morrison paints vibrant spreads . . . The poetic text reads like a song and makes for a perfect read-aloud story . . . A positive and uplifting book that can be appreciated by all readers." —School Library Journal
