Colorful Morning

Crisscrossing colors

slices of red, purple, gray

meld to paint the sky

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.

    1. Thank you! Because of the way my house is built into the mountain, I have to go somewhere else to see sunset but I’m treated to amazing sunrises almost every day. For the past month or more, I’ve been sharing them on Facebook and have friends who have told me they look forward to the daily photos. 😊 it’s always nice to be encouraged.
