Danielle Sharkan

Danielle Sharkan is the author of SHARING SHALOM (Holiday House, 2025), her debut picture book. She was a 2021 PBCHAT mentee.

​

She wrote SHARING SHALOM to help children process senseless acts of hate and to know they are not alone. Her stories highlight diversity, inclusion, appreciation for one’s heritage, and the environment. She hopes her writing fosters a sense of wonder in the world.

​

When she’s not writing, Danielle enjoys practicing yoga, hiking, keeping up with her two feisty young kids and always adorable goldendoodle, Charlie.

Danielle is represented by Charlotte Wenger at Prospect Agency.
