Come in 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 check back soon--there are more books coming in 2019, including books about Gettysburg National Military Park, financial literacy and Florida biographies!
In February, Scholastic Children's Press released GREAT WHITE SHARKS. Did you know great whites have been around for over 400 million years? And in July, National Geographic unveiled Little Kids FIRST BIG BOOK OF THE RAIN FOREST, a photographic feast of animals that live in the four layers of the rain forest with cool facts about howler monkeys, leaf cutter ants and many others.
And this fall, Scholastic Children's Press released BEAVERS! These master builders have an iron coating on their teeth to help them gnaw away at trees.

And in other news, Marcie Flinchum Atkins and I will be repeating our VAASL presentation about ways to help students write (and read) nonfiction entitled "The Truth, and Nothing But..."on November 29, 2018 for the Florida Association of Media Educators (FAME) in Orlando!
