I Hope To Focus On What I'm

I Had Always Loved To Write And My Mom Was My Editor For My School Papers.

As A Teacher You Can See The Difference In Kids Who Have Parents Who Were Involved. That Difference, By The Time These Kids Get To The Third Grade, Is Drastic.

I Think I've Become More Like My Mom Just Because Of What We're Both Interested In, Children And Teaching And Writing.

From My Dad ... I Think We Have A Similar Sense Of Humor. I Don't Know If That's A Good Or Bad Thing, But I Think He's Funny!

[my Mom] Is Quite The Strict Editor. I Feel Like Maybe She Has More Of The Old-school Editing Style, Which Really Works In Picture Books, Because You Don't Want To Articulate Anything In Words That Is Already Shown Through The Pictures.
