Scholastic Teacher's Essentials Catalogue- google your book

If you have a book published, find out where the publisher is selling it by googling your book.

Travelling through cyberspace, I came across this website that had my published book in it. I had to dig though. I mean I wasn't aware at all that the book, Finger Rhymes for the Holidays was in the Scholastic Essentials catalogue. It was under the heading Teachers.

I went to Scholastic.com where I discovered a short bio of myself but no books of mine were included on the website. On scholastic.ca, in a pdf, and under the heading Teacher's Essentials. It was a long search but worth it.

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!
