EXCITING NEWS!
I'm hosting an ezine!
Writing for Children's Magazines
Please check it out here.
More good news! Inchimals and
Aba-Conundrums
have won awards!
I'm delighted that you've come to my website! Hope you enjoy the puzzles,
activities, and articles as well as the information about
my books.
WRITERS--if you write for the education market, I have a list of
Educational Markets for Children's Writers with lots of links to publishers and
their submission guidelines.
My goal is to make learning fun!
Developing materials that help children enjoy learning and
that help make the teacher's job easier is one of my greatest delights.
Please check out my books, if you or the children you know would like to:
- enjoy puzzling around with math, reading, or history
- strengthen critical thinking and logic skills
- practice math facts in fun ways
- improve mathematical reasoning
- have some fun just stretching and exercising your brain
I hope you have fun with my creations! The levels of the books range in difficulty from kindergarten to adult.
