Greetings! Hello! Happy April!
I have been continuing my non-stop traveling with great fun. Meeting the warm and hospitable students, librarians and teachers during my school visits has been lovely. As I continue, I hope to meet even more of you--especially as I have planned some events open to the public!

Where the Mountain Meets the Moon: Coming Soon!
a teaser for the big release
It is still 2 months away from the release of my new novel WHERE THE MOUNTAIN MEETS THE MOON, but I am so excited! Not only do I think it is the best book I've written, it is also unusual because it will be a novel printed with full-color illustrations.
The border on the cover of the book holds elements of the story; so here is a little book teaser to call attention (and hopefully pique interest) on what is to come!
Next month, I'll post a more extended book trailer and after that the book will be released!!
