More About the Author

I grew up in South--in Savannah and Athens, Georgia and then Charlotte, North Carolina. When I was little, I loved stories about olden-day girls--my favorites were Betsy-Tacy, All-of-a-Kind Family, Little House On the Prairie. Imagine my delight when I went to college and discovered that I could take ENTIRE classes on (and get credit for learning about!) olden-day girls! Yay college! In college, I learned to call it women's history, but really--it was the exact same topic I'd been interested in since I was five. Now, I have the great pleasure and honor of editing books for children myself. I also write picture books, most of them true stories about brave women and girls in history--women like Amelia Bloomer and Juliette Gordon Low, who had the guts to take a stand for the things they believed in and change the world. When I'm not writing or editing, I'm usually reading with my two little boys. They like stories about oldenday girls, too (though truth be told, they prefer a good truck story).

My one year old cannot get enough of this book. He loves to look at the different Sesame Street characters and lift the flaps to find Oscar over and over again.

My daughter loves this book. It has been very handy when we go somewhere in the car (or bus) and I can ask her to put her seatbelt on - just like they do on Sesame Street - works everytime! My daughter loves this book so much I am buying another for my son when he gets to that age!

Though my toddler's a HUGE Sesame Street fan, this book never gets so much as a second glance. I thought the unusual shape and lift-the-flap features would be appealing, but for some reason it its not a favorite on the bookshelf.

The book doesn't include much text, simply descriptions of where in the fun park the characters are headed. But if your child simply loves looking at illustrations of the characters and is fascinated by flaps, then perhaps you should give it a try.
