Sassy and Lum, two bear cubs, can't wait to spy on the first campers of the year, even though Mother Bear warned them against it. They find two grownups and a small boy that are perfect for their adventure. When the campers are off for the day, the bear cubs wreak havoc on the campers' tent and sleeping bags! The grownups aren't paying attention at all, but the boy is certain that the bears are guilty. Can he prove it to the grownups?
Did you ever wonder what would happen if you took the road less traveled by?
This was a question I often asked myself.
In 1992, I decided to head down a new highway.
I left my lovely job in education and became a children's book author.
Did I miss the children, teacher friends, Blue Cross and Blue Shield? You bet!
But I wrote every day ( well almost), collected reams of rejections, and kept sending out manuscripts
In August of 94, the first contract call came.
Now 12 books later, the days flash by with writing, researching, revising, submitting, rejections (Yes, published authors still get them), email, school visits, conference presentations, and book signings.
My husband Earl encourages, edits, advises, takes pictures, helps with research , updates my website which he designed,and prints out maps to schools and bookstores.
I love meeting my readers. And I look forward to hearing from you.
