Hope-So Too (Tristan Publishing) was my first book. I love the three main characters. Once Hope So (the little girl) was created she came alive, I could see the puppy wagging his tail and I could almost feel the older dog’s soft fur. I think if they were real, I would have adopted them all. The first book is very special to me, I thank Brett Waldman for taking a chance with me.

A Grandma Like Yours / A Grandpa Like Yours (Lerner Publishing) was so much fun. Every page has a different animal family. I was able to learn about the Jewish traditions and the loving names of grandparents like bubbe, savta, zayde and saba. I loved creating the love between grandparents and grandchildren. I put an iguana somewhere on every page. (except for the middle and covers.) Can you find them? CLICK HERE to read some reviews and view inside pages!

Feliz Navidad (Teach Me Tapes Publishing) was my third book. I created a family celebrating the traditions of a typical Mexican Christmas from the beginning of December to Three Kings Day in January. A rooster is a secondary character throughout the book. His name is Larry, and is on every page in the book. Some pages you have to look for him. Larry was fun to create and really got into all the traditions. Why, he even bakes! CLICK HERE to read some reviews and view inside pages!
