Nonfiction--it's all true! 
|

Welcome to my world of amazing but true! Most of what I write is nonfiction for third and fourth grade readers about animals, civil rights, history and more. I love learning new things, and I hope you will too! I am available for visit schools, so please check out my school visits page.

And big news (that is no longer a secret!): my wonderful agent Jennifer Unter has sold a manuscript I co-authored with artist John Platt to Sleeping Bear Press for release in March 2020. The best part is that the book, HOW TO DRAW A LION, will be illustrated with the artwork of children that John has taught in three different African children's villages and a portion of the proceeds will be donated to a charity founded by John, to be given back to the villages.
