children's author
& poet

Hello! I am the author of TODAY IS A ME DAY, a picture book for ages 3 and up.
I believe we all need a Me Day to reboot, so we can give back to others. On my Me Days, I love to play the piano, skip stones in my park's pond, and make fancy picnic blankets for my fanciful friends.
Poems bubble out of me anytime.
About Me:
I grew up on the edge of Sherwood Forest and yes, my father really was the High Sheriff of Nottinghamshire, England. As a young child, I lived in the woods, made my own bow and arrows, mixed mud potions, built forts in the rhododendrums, made hamster hotels, and climbed trees until way past bedtime.
In 2017, I founded the Bellport Children's Festival, a whimsical, immersive children's storytelling festival set on Isabella Rossellini's newly named MAMA Farm on Long Island.

Today I live in Brooklyn, NY with my rambunctious children and our wild wolf, Sugar. I still climb trees and the occasional mountain.
