My First Board Book Available
A board book version of Baby's Firsts came out from Charlesbridge May 17, 2022. This is the perfect format for babies and their young siblings to enjoy this classic look at the milestones of the first year. The title has been the perfect baby and first birthday gift--and this new format makes it even more perfect. With 1- and 2-year-old grandsons, I am over the moon kmowing they can have and hold and do their worst to one of my books! Parents who only buy board books for their 0 to 3-year-olds will now have this choice.
Watch virtual author and illustrator visit
What a pleasure it was to do my first virtual author visit with illustrator Rebecca Evans for the BookMark of Neptune Beach, FL! We interviewed each other, giving viewers a look at how the words and delightful illustrations came together. And we demonstrated an opposites game you can play at home. Watch it here.
