Inno’s books stand in solidarity with people of all ages, races, gender identifications, and backgrounds. M is for Movement is the fifth title written and illustrated by Innosanto Nagara. After it came Counting on Community, then My Night in the Planetarium and The Wedding Portrait. Inno’s first book, A is for Activist, started a movement in social justice book publishing for children. Inno lives in Oakland in a cohousing community with nine adults and eight kids. After studying zoology and philosophy at UC Davis, Inno moved to the San Francisco Bay Area, working as a graphic designer for a range of social change organizations before founding the Design Action Collective, a worker-owned cooperative design studio.
Born and raised in Indonesia, Inno moved to the US in 1988. Children’s book author and illustrator Innosanto Nagara’s books encourage children to grow up with confidence in themselves, and to be proactive citizens who are passionate about causes from environmental issues to LGBTQ rights and civil rights.
