"Trouble on Earth Day" Soon to be Released!

Here's a page from my soon to be released book, Trouble on Earth Day. This is a fun and educationtional story about a Squirrel who helps a new friend while saving the earth. This book is a one stop shopping value for parents and teachers because it is full of great recycling ideas, craft projects, and worksheet pages. The talented illustrator is Kurt Wilcken. He's a joy to work with and I can't wait to see each illustration he finishes. Check out his blog: http://coldsteelindiaink.blogspot.com/

VIRTUAL BOOK TOUR IN NOVEMBER!!

I'm very excited to be part of a virtual book tour which is slated to launch this November. Each week I'll be featuring a different author. You can add comments or questions that I can ask the author. I will interview these authors and get insights into their lives and their writing. Some of them might be authors that you have read or are using in your classroom already, while others are exciting new authors entering the book world. I am one of the latter. I have just signed a contract for my first children's book entitled, "Trouble on Earth Day." This book about a squirrel named Shelby and her family is a great way to introduce your children to conservation and recycling. After finding things around the house to recycle, Shelby hears someone crying outside her home. Without giving too much away, I can tell you that she helps another animal through a crisis using her recycled materials. Then all is well in the forest again! This book will come with several activity pages for children, parents and teachers to enjoy. I will be interviewed on other authors sites as well.
