A Book about kids growing up with flowers thrown in...
|
My first book is about kids growing up. I like to think my book has a dual purpose... comforting parents with empt nest, and exposing children to flowers. Who ever thought that the hardest part of parenting was kids growing up? I certainly never thought of it. Yet here I am with my son flown from the nest, and my daughter heading to college. And I struggle with my soon to be empty nest. One day my new Granddaughter went into our garage and picked up my daughter's old watering can. My hubby filled it for her and she started watering... which got me thinking. About how life had come full circle. So I took some pics of her playing with watering can, and started my book. I hope it comforts empty nesters and sparks a love of flowers and nature for little ones. |

I am a big fan of remembering loved ones that have left us. If it were not for them, we would not be here! So we need to teach the newest generation about them so they are not lost. My new book does just that, with a family tree to fill in at the end.
It is a hardcover book, that I hope will become a heirloom for your family. Cousins talks about the bonds of cousins, illustrated as a family of squirrels. Cousins explains how we get cousins, and it includes a map of USA so you can show them where their cousins live throughout the country! I am hoping that my book brings up questions about family and teaches your children about people that have passed that were related to them. |

In addition to the two books above, I have two books in the works as well! One is about our family's wedding car, a 1929 model A, and the other is about color.
Hopefully they are done soon!

(Just look at file names, less ink or more ink! )
They print out on two sheets, for you to tape together, letter size.
Have fun learning about your family!

I was commissioned by Andrea Smith to illustrate a book about the bond between Andrea and her horse, Yankee. There is something special about the bond between a horse and rider, and Andrea captures this beautifully with her words.
It would make a lovely gift for any horse lovers in your life!
Andrea's book is a hardcover book, and available now online,
or at a few select stores in CT, and RI.
