12/20/2022

 
Shhhhhh—for most of 2022 I've been keeping a big secret about a new picture book project . . . (waiting on finalized illustrator details to go public.)

​BUT I can tell you that the book is a rhyming ode to a perfect sunny day at play!  Pack up your shovels and buckets—and stay tuned for more news about my tribute to the joy of building a SANDCASTLE!   I can't wait for this book to find its way to readers young and old who also love beach days. . .  More soon.

That's me in the upper left corner!
DELIGHTED to be heading back to North Florida's amazing Amelia Island Book Festival again in 2023! I'll be working with students from TWO awesome schools and sharing stories about Abraham Lincoln. Each student receives a copy of my award-winning picture book, THE SUPERLATIVE A. LINCOLN. What an amazing book festival this is. Did you know that each year the festival's donors (count me and my hubs as strong supporters!) provide enough funding to donate over 10,000 books to students in Nassau County Florida? It's an amazing outreach effort. Every young reader goes home with a book - AND gets the opportunity to meet an author with the school programs. Bravo to the AIBF Team! And thanks to SCBWI-Florida for granting their first-ever Literacy Award to the AIBF with a gift of $500 this year. I was honored to nominate this festival for that award!!
