I’m so glad you’re visiting my site. I’ve got new Teacher’s Guides and books to share with you. Also, I’m part of a new, exciting website! Check out READERKIDZ – it s the K-5 website for librarians, teachers, and parents.

New books in 2010:  

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SOPHIE HARTLEY, Clarion, middle grade.  A starred review in The Horn Book (June/July issue).

“Impulsive, big-hearted, prone-to-enthusiasm middle-child Sophie Hartley is back in another lively chapter book full of humor, believable family dynamics, and character who think and talk like real people. …  themes of identity, ambivalence about growing up, and friendship … never trump story or character.”

PRINCESS POSEY AND THE FIRST GRADE PARADE, Illustrator: Stephanie Roth Sisson 

Putnam – New Early Chapter Book series

“Six-year-old Posey, in a sparkling tutu on the cover, will capture the attention of young emerging readers. … this new chapter book series will be warmly received by youngsters looking for something comfortable and familiar to begin with.”   The Horn Book, June/July
