How I came to write children's books
I retired from my career as a biotechnology patent attorney just before the pandemic started. Although I thoroughly enjoyed my practice and my colleagues but wanted to spend more time with my grandchildren and share my love of nature. But we were separated during the lockdown, and like many people that year, I focused my energies on my back yard. Encounters with local wildlife led to the first two books in my Tales from Gramma's Garden series. The third book is progressing. My hope is that these books will inspire children to preserve wildlife habitats and maintain ecological equilibrium. I'm pleased to hear from my customers that the books have stimulated curiosity and spirited discussion about pollination, lichen, the use of spider silk, family, and many other topics. I'm also having fun designing games and fabric inspired by the books.
Children's Books:
- Baby Hummer Grows Up
- Sammy's Quest
- Sammy's Quest Coloring and Activity Book
Products Inspired by the Books:
- Go Flit Card Game
- Fabric
My books are available here, on Amazon, and from many other booksellers. Click here to learn more about Sammy's Quest and Baby Hummer and to order autographed copies.
All of my fabric designs are available at my Spoonflower shop and some fat quarters are available in my Etsy quilt shop.
Book #1 - Sammy's Quest
How did I get the idea for Sammy’s Quest?
The river by our house began to subside as summer approached, leaving behind a small sandy beach in a patch of sunlight. It had been a long time since I had been able to lounge on the beach because of local restrictions due to the pandemic. With great excitement, I lugged the lawn chair down the hill to the river and settled in to soak up some sun. Glancing up, I saw a Lorquin’s Admiral butterfly basking in the sun on the tip of a willow branch. Time and time again the Admiral butterfly would chase away a much larger Western Tiger Swallowtail butterfly. As I watched the territorial dance, my imagination took over and the story began to emerge.
In short, Sammy's Quest is a whimsical children's picture book about a cheerful butterfly trying to find his mate's designated meeting place. His search begins far away, where he must resolve a conflict with a territorial butterfly before he can even find the right path.
To learn more about the book, visit my bookstore. Hardcover and paperback versions of Sammy's Quest are also available from many independent and large bookstores, including Amazon. An E-book version is available from Amazon.
Book #2 - Baby Hummer Grows Up
How did I get the idea for Baby Hummer Grows Up?
Many of us became hyper-focused on our back yards during the pandemic (myself included), and undertook more gardening projects than we might have done under normal circumstances. One day, I received a call from my friend, horrified that her zealous pruning had very nearly chopped away a hummingbird nest. From then on she kept a close eye on the egg's development, providing me with regular updates. There were many tense moments, mainly weather related. In anticipation of a particularly windy night, my friend built a wind break for the nest area. The baby was progressing well and was expected to fledge soon. But sadly, one day the baby and the nest were gone. Suspecting a crow that had been hanging around, my friend was beside herself with grief for the little bird. In fact, very few baby hummingbirds survive to adulthood because of the many threats to their well-being. Fortunately, as an author, one has the power to change the outcome of a story. My friend's fierce protective spirit is captured in Mama, whose vigilance and guidance help her babies navigate through the challenges and dangers they face growing up. But of course this story has a happy ending!
In short, Baby Hummer Grows Up is a memoir of a hummingbird's chickhood and his mother's love. With a comfortable balance of humor and suspense, Brother describes the challenges and dangers he faced during his development from egg to adult.
To learn more about the book, visit my online bookstore. Hardcover and paperback versions of Baby Hummer Grows Up are also available from many independent and large bookstores, including Amazon. An E-book version is available from Amazon.
Sammy's Quest Coloring & Activity Book
Why make an activity book?
I've always loved puzzles. In fact, learning how to create puzzles was an entertaining puzzle in itself! Plus, creating the coloring pages was nearly as meditative as coloring itself would be. I found myself working on this project when I needed a break from writing and illustrating Baby Hummer Grows Up. Rather than just have arbitrary coloring pages, I decided to just duplicate the entire story, text and all, with simplified drawings. The 8 1/2 x 11 format provided plenty of room to display each sentence on a separate line. Single sentences may be more inviting for the early reader than dense paragraphs. Or, they can skip the reading altogether and just enjoy coloring the characters and scenes. Dot-to-dot and spot-the-difference puzzles were one of my favorites as a kid, and word and number games made learning fun!
In this 65 page coloring book, the entire Sammy's Quest story is reproduced in coloring book form. Also included are word search, dot to dot, numbers, hidden pictures, and spot the difference puzzles featuring words or characters from the story.
To learn more about the book, visit my online bookstore. Hardcover and paperback versions of the Sammy's Quest Coloring & Activity Book is also available from Amazon.
Go Flit Card Game
How did I get the idea for the Go Flit card game?
My older granddaughters had so much fun playing with the postcard flyers I had prepared for one of my book signing events. The eldest liked quizzing me on each of the characters on the flyer, and the two-year old enjoyed flipping through them, turning them over and over. So, I began designing flash cards and collector cards. In the process, I began thinking of games and liked the play on words - Go Flit sounding similar to Go Fish, and the Admiral of Sammy's Quest repeatedly telling Sammy to go flit (go away). The rules of the Go Flit game are similar to Go Fish, so it's a fun and easy game for a young child.
Go Flit is a delightful card game for kids age 3 or older that is based on Sammy's Quest. It's a fun way for children to learn matching, numbers, animals, and organized play.
To learn more about the game, visit my bookstore or my Etsy shop.
