MY Board Books
For little people, I write everything from board books, big books, early readers, to creative and narrative non-fiction titles, pictures books, middle grade novels, poetry, craft activities, and magazine stories. On this page, I've highlighted some of my works for the wee ones.
Here are a few samples of my board books for a variety of publishers. They weave simple concepts with lyrical language and eye-appealing illustrations. Watch this space for more board books ahead.

T. REX FROM HEAD TO TAIL
PLANETS and the SOLAR SYSTEM
Here are my latest board books for SMITHSONIAN KIDS. They are part of the FIRST DISCOVERY BOOKS series. These titles are:
T-REX: From Head to Tail! and Planets in our Solar System! I used primary resources from around the world, conducted interviews with a world famous paleontologist and leading dinosaur expert, Steve Brusatte (The Rise and Fall of Dinosaurs) from University of Scotland, Edinburgh, Joshua Matthews at the Burpee Museum in Rockford, IL, and Dr. Mark Hammergren, an astronomer at the Adler Planetarium in Chicago, and consulted the most up-to-date from NASA and the dinosaur world to find the most up-to-date and accurate information along with jewels and gems of information to write these. My readers deserve nothing less!
