Finger Rhymes for Manners

Finger Rhymes for Manners-Content Connected Rhymes for Science, Math, Social Studies and Technology is a book for PreK-K, published by Lorenz Educational Press. It's a book to help parents, teachers and children to interact with one another. I wrote the book. I hope you like it!
My feature action rhyme today is called 'Twelve Friends'. Here's an excerpt:

                                  Here we have twelve friends or more,
                                   (Point around circle of children)

                                   Let's count them while sitting on the floor,
                                   (Count together)

                                   We can say hello or wave today,
                                    (Everyone wave)

                                    We can fold our hands and say,
                                     (Fold hands)

                                    "Let's stand up and play!"
                                     (Stand)

Nature's Patchwork Quilt Mini Review

A new book from Dawn Publications, this book exemplifies the wonders of nature. It explores habitats of the world. The illustrations are detailed and varied, full of life! I recommend this book to children who want to study about creatures and where they live. Here's an excerpt:
                                                  A patchwork quilt

                                                  has many pieces that

                                                  fit together to make

                                                  a beautiful blanket.

                                                  Nature is like a patchwork quilt.

                                                  It has many different habitats

                                                  all pieced together to create

                                                  our wonderful planet.

At the Writer's Intensive Roundtable in New York

I presented my manuscript to nine people. It was an exciting experience to have my work critiqued by my peers and an editor. Teatime with Harmony Hen received a good revision. I hope to send it out to publishers soon!

More Pictures from the Conference in New York

Lin Oliver, the president and founder of SCBWI, signs a copy of my book Hank Zipzer by Henry Winkler and Lin Oliver. The book was a great read and Lin was even greater. She is an adorable woman. I told her so in person. I hope I see her again in Los Angeles.

Another highlight was when Jane Yolen signed my book Pretty Princess Pig and How Do Dinosaurs Say Goodnight? Heidi E. Y. Stemple signed the first book which she authored with Jane.

More highlights to come...
