Hello librarians! I just wanted to let you know that my first picture book just came out last week (book launch party at The Briar Patch in Bangor tomorrow at 2pm!). *Thérèse Makes a Tapestry* (ISBN 978-1-60606-473-3) is a work of historic fiction geared towards ages 6+. I hope you'll consider adding it to your collections. I'm including a couple of links to recent features and reviews in case you would like to read more about it. There are more available on my website. I do readings, presentations, and workshops for all ages, but especially K-5 and adults, so please add me to your potential lists for the future. I can give you referrals. Thank you, and happy Friday!
