Washington, DC — Jennaye Fennell, a single Black mother and educator, and her 3 entrepreneurial children are the creators of Fennell Adventures, a collection of unique travel books for kids. 16-year old Jiyah, 12-year old Jace, and 11-year old Merl are the talented writers of the series. They believe that there is no reason for families to be held back from traveling within their imagination during COVID-19 or for children to be reading boring books while quarantining at home.
Initial travel thought
One day while in college at the University of Delaware, the professor asked, “Who has traveled?” Jennaye was an inner-city child who had only traveled to Disney World once. She watched all of her Caucasian classmates describe all of their extraordinary destinations and vowed to make a change with her own children.
