May Reading Take You Many Places!

G'DAY MATES! Come to Australia where most of the animals are unique! From kangaroos and koalas, to wombats and sugar gliders, they are a fascinating bunch. In my picture book "Over in Australia, Amazing Animals Down Under" kids imitate and count the animals, and find hidden ones as well. Like my book "Over in the Arctic," the cut-paper illustrations by Jill Dubin will inspire many an art project.

And, I just learned that "Australia" received another award: the Florida Publishers Association Gold Award for Children's Picture Book. I am so pleased with all the wonderful awards this book has received since it was released in March 2011.
