Time to leave my wildlife rehab friends’ home, couldn’t find keys. Everyone looked. Car alarm set off. Neighbors looked. Later, I thought about where they might be. Rascal knew. Love wildlife? Check out our book Into the Thicket. Link in profile. 🐰💚 . . #raccoon #mystery #missingkeys #wildlife
The lighting outside is eerie at dusk. We have hazardous air from Canada & Wisc wildfires here in Mich. Can’t capture in photos. Not to be dramatic but I’m thinking: Humans are the architects of their/our own destruction. Btw AI centers, disastrous policy lately etc. We’ve got to turn it around!
A new 5 star review thru Goodnightreads. Many thanks to the reviewer and GNR. This is so rewarding for authors. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #childrensbooks #fivestar #summerreads #kidlit

Baby footsies in chick pjs — my lovely view for much of the afternoon today at my volunteer gig. Talking, singing, reading, quiet time while she slept. If you’re interested, it’s an assignment I highly recommend 😍💕👶🏽 Children /babies are such a delight.
I’m not there but my husband is — sunset over Death Valley National Park! Stunningly gorgeous, right? He’s getting in some warm weather jogs — he’s fed up with Michigan winter! #sunset @altnps.bsky.social #nationalparks #deathvalley
Happy New Year! Here’s to a better 2026. We are living in the Future 🙃 New Year’s Day trail walk. My cardiologist said “stay active” and I think that’s a great prescription. What did you do today?
They’ve made us wait but it’s tonight! Excited and nervous. 😆 #strangerthings #strangerthingsfinale
I looked up early instances of “breaking the fourth wall” - when a character interacts w/ audience. It dates back to Ancient Greek amphitheaters! I noted this ex in The Grinch Who Stole Christmas. What are some examples you’ve noticed and liked? #break4thwall #tv #grinch

My December blog post is up! Some readers holiday book faves (and mine) and how my virtual book tour with The Children’s Book Review is going. #christmasbooks #kidlit #booktour I’d love to hear from you! Got a wonderful email from someone I didn’t know about my books. He didn’t want anything LOL
