I’m so grateful to Penguin Young Readers Group, Philomel Books, my editor – Michael Green, and my family in their never-ending love and support. Perhaps most of all, I’m thankful to all of YOU, my readers. Your kind words, letters, emails and overall outpouring for my maiden voyage into children’s literature has fueled my creativity and allowed me to fly to new heights. You will see on all the book pages in my website, not some hard pressed sales pitch (although you are always most welcome to purchase my books) but more of a reader report. It is here I am able to provide just a sampling of the incredible response I have personally received. You will notice on each page literary reviews “from the experts” and also a sampling of the hundreds of letters, emails, customer reviews that all of YOU have sent me. Please feel free to leave a reply throughout my site. I do read all my own mail. Thank You!
