I'm glad you stopped by! Probably anything you could ever want to know about me is right here. I'm very excited about my first book. Yay! Winnie Finn, Worm Farmer is a picture book for ages 4-8, illustrated by New York Times best-selling artist Ard Hoyt. I am proud to say that our book has been named a Junior Library Guild selection!
Be sure to check out "Wormy News" on this site--all about worms.
Winnie Finn is going to be one of ten picture books kids will read for the Maine Chickadee Award next year. Kids in Maine schools will hear or read stories chosen by librarians and educators statewide and then vote for their faves. What an honor!

Thanks for stopping by.





"The story presents such a winning heroine, Winnie, part-scientist, part-entrepreneur, that you may consider raising worms as a hobby." --Chicago Tribune
