Moon Musings

Tonight’s full moon made its appearance bathed in clouds. Each month, as the full moon rises, I’m drawn to the beauty and light. Far from the city and it’s inherent light pollution, I’m able to appreciate the magic of moonlight and the reflections created.

What songs about the moon inspire you? My two favorites are: Van Morrison’s “Moondance” and King Harvest’s “Dancing in the Moonlight” – if you need me, I’ll be dancing.

I'm a reading specialist and award winning educator from Chicago. While living in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado for nine years, I spent time hiking on the trails with my Goldendoodle Charlie and friends, writing, working in a literacy program at the Boulder Public Library, and mentoring writers and teachers. I love visiting schools. My books combine STEM and Kindness. "Aliana Reaches for the Moon" a picture book that draws inspiration from the moon and the curiosity of children, inviting children to be creative, explore, and experiment. "An Accidental Hero: A Mostly True Wombat Story" a picture book told in the form of a newscast which skillfully balances the serious subject of forest fires with compassion and humor to help children navigate this important topic through the real events of 2020. I moved to Northern New Jersey in 2025 and am working on new projects.
