Welcome to my website! Here you can learn all about the books I write for kids and teens, the programs I offer to schools, libraries, conferences, and community centers, and much, much more. Look around and you’ll find pictures of me, my family, my pets; you’ll find out where I was born, where I grew up, where I get my writing ideas; and you’ll even learn how to say my name. Come on in — I’m glad you stopped by!
