About the author

I wrote my first book when I was 8 years old. I glued photos of my cats in a blank book and wrote about them, too. Now I am an internationally-published children's author commended by the Library of Congress for my work encouraging children to read.
I write in a room between a deli and an art gallery on a small town street. I can see families walking by, and I can hear children laughing and playing. It helps me to remember what exactly I'm doing this for - creating books for families all over the world to use together, and helping children to love words.

This is good for adults, too! Well written with informative illustrations and a helpful glossary

This is a great book that shows the inside workings of various construction vehicles that you'd see on a daily road trip. Easy to understand and filled with great illustrations, this book makes a great resource for anyone interested in the topic.
