 Summer, 1960

Welcome to my writing world. I write personal narrative, creative nonfiction, straight nonfiction and for and about kids and teens.

My first novel will be published in 2013! Prisoner 88 is a middle grade historical novel set at the Idaho Penitentiary in 1885 and will be published by Charlesbridge.

I recently edited The Easter Bunny That Grew Up. All proceeds from this picture book -- the real story of a rescue bunny named Flopsy Parker -- will go to bunnies in need.

Happy reading!
