About me
I’m the author of numerous picture books including Turkeys in Disguise, Bunny In Disguise, Grow, Easter Starring Egg, Panda-Monium, and A Little Bit of Love. As well, I’ve written board books, Curious George books, and stories and readers for the Khan Academy Kids learning app. For older readers, I’ve written the YA novel Postcards from Summer and middle grade novel Parker Bell & the Science of Friendship.
When I’m not writing, I love to watch soccer, bake, read, and clumsily knit. Currently I’m the editorial director at a small educational nonprofit. In my past career, I worked as a children’s book editor at Houghton Mifflin Harcourt and Candlewick Press, and taught in Lesley University’s MFA in Creative Writing program where I also got my own MFA.
Along with my daughter, husband, and guinea pig, I live in a little yellow house a stone’s throw from the ocean, where I can spend endless hours searching for sea glass.
