Picture Books, Easy Readers, Chapter Books, and more!

I’m so excited to announce the launch of lots of new picture books, easy readers, and chapter books I’ve written for Crabtree and Seahorse Books. There are so many characters and series that I’ve had such fun creating—Madison Mars, Howie and Maple, Miss Happ and so many more! I hope you’ll have fun browsing my updated website and checking out everything that’s new!
