At Wild Rose Reader , Elaine Magliaro is celebrating National Poetry Month. Click on the link to be taken to her blog, where with a simple comment on one of her posts dated April 22 to 28 (which is today, so don’t hesitate) you can win a chance to receive a copy of Borrowed Names.
I’ll be one of the hundred authors and illustrators appearing at the Hudson Book Festival on Saturday May 7 in Hudson, New York. Lisa Dolan, one of the amazing organizers, reviews my picture book, Mary Anning and the Sea Dragon, and asked me questions about writing for children here at the Register-Star. I love her comments about her son gaining perspective on his world from an amazingly patient and determined girl born over 200 years ago.
It’s so good to have friends who support reading! Thank you!





Lovely to see your beautiful book getting this support.
