I write lyrical children’s books & poems for kids
that tend to linger with the grownups who read to them.
We lose ourselves in books, we find ourselves there too.

Wonderful rhyming and sweet words create a rhythm and story fit for all ages. My daughter struggles with anxiety and this book gives her permission to be herself and find her own crowd.
