NYC Busy Sunday

Rockefeller Center was surprisingly the least crowded place we visited on a walk in the city. I’m always amazed by the sea of humanity in the city. Later last night, I discovered a friend’s pictures showing the same views. #NextTime

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. It’s both fun and terrifying. 😂 I was with a friend who knows her way around so that makes it easier. I also spent a few weeks in the summer in NY so I have a better sense of it than before. I’m a Chicago girl so City life isn’t foreign to me.

    1. Wow! I’m a Chicago girl and never felt the need to visit NYC because we had so many of the same experiences. Now that I live in the mountains, it’s a nice change and I have a daughter who lives nearby plus other family and friends in the city. I’ve spent a lot of time there in the past 2 1/2 years.
