On February 19, 2019, ALIANA REACHES FOR THE MOON, written by me! and illustrated by Ariel Boroff released from Eifrig Publishing to coincide with the full moon. If you follow this blog, you know how much I am inspired by the moon and the variety as it waxes to full and wanes to the slimmest crescent.
I’ve featured over 80 authors and illustrators on my blog since January, 2021. Inspiring interviews, fun childhood photos, and giveaways. It’s been a pleasure getting to know so many talented creators and sharing their books with my readers.
Today to celebrate Aliana’s birthday, I am sharing a few fun photos and a giveaway of one signed copy. Comment on the blogpost to enter the giveaway.

I’ve enjoyed the opportunity to gift this to three little readers and all have loved reading it, one took it to her class and it was read aloud. You’re a great writer!

Happy 3rd b-day! Hard to believe it’s been that long! Time kind of slips by in children’s publishing, LOL. You don’t have to enter me into the giveaway, since I have my very own copy. Thank you!
