About the author

Here's everything you wanted to know about me...and probably a lot you didn't.

THE BASICS. I'm older than I act, red haired (usually), and excessively fond of chocolate. I work in textbook publishing, so I'm partially to blame for killer backpack syndrome. Sorry.

I love to sing, and have been known to act. I'd like to be on Broadway, but the closest I've ever come was reality TV. Finally, I'm the mother of three exceptionally handsome and talented sons. I say this with the sole purpose of embarrassing them. My husband is a dentist who really would like to be Doc Holliday, and I'm the love object of a 90-pound mutt of dubious heritage.

I story about a bug hunt to gather all the bugs that they can find. This book has short sentences and shows pictures of all of the bugs and names them throughout the hunt so anyone that is interested in bugs at a young age will enjoy this story.

Cute rhyming reader, with the names of the insects included near the pictures to prompt further investigation. Another classic.

Read for Headstart and Early Headstart story times.
