Thank you...I wrote the book 5 years ago so it's very exciting finally getting it published. I hope to have it in my hands in the next few weeks so I can start contacting bookstores and promoting the book. A friend of mine is making t-shirts with the cover...very cute and colorful.

Thank you. The girl who did my illustrations is a teacher at my school. She did a great job! I am working on making some contacts for publicity once the book is completed. This includes setting up a book signing. I have already started on a 2nd book -- just have the first and last paragraph written. I will probably work on it more once school starts and I have some down time while the kids are gone.
