I am a busy wife, mother of four and a new grandma. I went to college in Massachusetts and received my degree in Early Childhood Education. I have been in just about every role as a child educator that you can imagine, a teacher, teacher's assistant, substitute teacher, Girl Scout troop leader, Boy Scout troop assistant, and even a camp counselor. Adding author to my list is a dream come true, and am excited my books are now being sold
all over the country!
I would like to thank my publishers Steve and Dawn Porter and their amazing staff at Stillwater River Press. When I went to him with my book idea, he gave me guidance and a path to follow. Dawn helped me grow to expand my knowledge and fine-tune my writing. I am excited about my first book and many others to come. I can't wait for us to work together again soon!
Sometimes there are people who give you strength, power and encouragement, at the end of the day knowing that they were by your side makes a huge difference. Funny how they don’t even realize what an impact they have.
So to my friends, family, coworkers and acquaintances, you’ve all done your part. It takes a village…
thank you to my village!
Thanking my illustrator Rebecca Compton is a given. Without her, my characters could not have come alive and swoop into children’s hearts. I know after working together, we have created something very special for children and families to enjoy. Thank you for your time and amazing artwork!
Family: the people in your life that you can always count on in both the good times and the bad. The people who love you unconditionally for
just being you. They say you can
pick your friends and not your family, but if I had to choose I would definitely choose you guys.
Thank you for believing in me
and putting up with me for
all these years!
I love you! 143
I really am so lucky! My brother has always been on my side to laugh, listen and share our lives. Although, he lives on the other side of the world, we are closer than most siblings and that will never change.
Thank you so much for all your encouragement, advice, love
and friendship!
You are the best!!
I want to say a super huge thank you for your encouraging words during this process and for listening to me explaining every detail of my new journey. You gave me honest feedback which helped me improve myself and become a better person. I feel so special to have such great friends that actually feel like family.
I appreciate you all!
