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.

Reviews

The author presents plenty of interesting facts about autumn, such as why it tends to be windier, and foggier in the fall, why leaves change color, and how animals prepare for the coming winter.

Included are some activities to celebrate the season.
