Established in 2006, k 2 e Books, Inc. is a company focused on the spiritual and emotional health of children during times of illness.

Katie Kinsella
Diagnosed with chronic asthma at the age of 10, Katie knows the struggles children deal with as they live with chronic illnesses. Hospitalized with her first attack, she experienced the fear and uncertainty of what lie ahead for children suddenly diagnosed with a disease. Katie decided when she was old enough she would pursue a career as a respiratory therapist. Katie knew in respiratory care, she could help others dealing with many of the same health issues that she has. She graduated in 2003, and has been practicing as a Registered Respiratory Therapist since. With experience in both hospitals and home care, Katie's background in medicine and her love of children provide the passion needed to see kids heal through k2e Books.
