A new kind of picture book for creative children

Enjoy the Journey of Reading with the Joy of Creating

A longtime freelance writer and editor turned children’s book author, I am passionate about the link between written and visual storytelling. I am a major proponent of nurturing creativity and independent thinking in children and leveraging those strengths in our children’s education and daily life.

Here you’ll find the latest on my picture books for creative children and my blog, where I discuss parenting, education, and children’s books with a focus on creativity.
