I grew up outside of Philadelphia, headed off to Vassar College and then to New York City. Besides working in bookstores, raising my two boys and teaching pre-school, my two favorite things are reading and traveling. Writing stories for children is kind of like doing both at the same time! Now, I live in Maine and teach students who are learning English because they or their parents came from other countries. They were the inspiration for my new novel: ONE GOOD THING ABOUT AMERICA.
