Themes will be kindness, sharing and thoughtfulness.

I have published eighteen children's books that cater to themes of kindness, thoughtfulness and teamwork since 2015. I have used my animal themed picture books and storybooks in the public-school sector in WI and IA for readings along with all year-round library programs for ages Prek to 6th grade in Iowa and Colorado. In addition, I also serve as a professional editor and ghostwriter.  Lastly, I served as a guest speaker at Prairie du Chien ISD's Young Authors night in 2016. In my local NE Iowa community and local library, I have taught writing workshops on the independent publishing endeavor and creating a children's book.

*Special note: The summary page will attach to the back of the pages of text like a back cover of a book. The teacher will provide an assessment of each student's book and send feedback to the parent after the completion of the class. Each student story/picture book should anywhere from fourteen to eighteen sentences. It's perfectly fine to go over eighteen sentences. This number amount listed is a minimum number of sentences required for the picture book.
*Theme of third week will be celebrating thoughtfulness.
