Celebrating the warmth of friendship, the river of life, the magic of adventure and scrumptiousness of Cheese, especially delightful when it is shared!
So, I have just launched my middle grade adventure book, “Housie Mousie and The BIG Cheese.” What gave me the idea for this new escapade?
I was inspired of course by the literary great, Kenneth Grahame, and the gorgeous hardback, with a dust cover, of “The Wind in The Willows,” that my dad gave me when I was young. I spent hours as a child pouring over the pages. Of course, the river and the animal Read more of this blog post »

“Books are a portable kind of time travel. We go back as well as forward when we read them. When we come back into the now, after being immersed in worlds previously unknown to us, we find ourselves, transformed. Touched by their magic, nothing we ever perceived beforehand remains quite the same.”

“Libraries are like caves. They are places of transformation. There are secrets hidden within those walls.”

"Why not?" asked Housie Mousie.
"Someone would have eaten it long ago!" Ratty replied.”
