It was followed with "Pepper Parrot's Problem with Patience-A Captain No Beard Story" which received five stars form the ForeWord Reviews-Clarion Review. "Stuck in the Doldrums-A Story about Sharing" will be released within the week. "Strangers on the High Seas" and "The Treasure of Snake Island" are due out this summer.

Her second series,"I Want To Do Yoga Too." is a children's introduction to Yoga and is loved for it's simplicity.

Lastly, a groundbreaking non fiction series called " If You Were Me and Lived in...Mexico- A Child's Introduction to Cultures Around the World" will be launched in the coming weeks. France, Norway, South Korea, Turkey and Kenya are in production and near completion.
