Sobre mi biblioteca

Having lost a large personal library (2700 books or so) to the floods of Katrina in 2005, I am stunned at how quickly I have accumulated yet another large personal library (I am a huge fan of second hand book sales, specifically the Symphony Book Fair, held in New Orleans every spring). One collection within my collection includes 800 cat books.


Sobre mí

I served as professor of children's literature, young adult literature, and nonfiction at the University of New Orleans for more than two decades, taught children for 20 years, and am the author of Tales From a Teaching Life: Vignettes in Verse, Elephant of Sadness, Butterfly of Joy illustrated by Megan Elizabeth Baratta, The Cat Who Loved Mozart illustrated by Henri Sorenson, and contributor to The Quilt of States by Adrian Yorinks. I have been editor of the JOURNAL of CHILDREN'S LITERATURE and a member of the committee NOTABLE BOOKS FOR THE LANGUAGE ARTS (NCTE). and chaired the Americas Award Committee. I am a member of ALA, NCTE, IRA, and SCBWI.

Nothing is better than curling up with my cats and a good book.
