Let’s Talk Books!
Over the years, I’ve discovered amazing stories about Samuel Morse, John Deere, Noah Webster, Great Lakes shipping, cheerleading, tractors, monster trucks, ballet, racecars, and so much more!
I’ve written for emerging readers, reluctant readers, accelerated readers, and adult readers. Most of my high-interest children’s nonfiction books were written for schools and libraries to support academic standards. Some of my works, such as Samuel Morse, That's Who!, John Deere, That’s Who!, Noah Webster’s Fighting Words, and Storm Codes, have earned national recognition and even won awards.
As much as I love to write, I also love talking about books and writing with readers and writers of all ages. Contact me about an author visit, workshops, or questions.
