Cleveland Ohio Book Tour

I had a wonderful opportunity to do a 10-day promotional book tour for my third Children’s Picture Book “Work, Dogs, Work: a A Highway Tail”. Thanks to Cleveland State University’s Center for Excellence & Innovation in Education I was able to visit several local schools and have the chance to talk to thousands of kids. Here’s the video from my book tour. Hope you enjoy it.

Work, Dogs, Work – Kirkus Review

I just saw the new review for Work, Dogs, Work: A Highway Tail from the folks at Kirkus. I've been very fortunate to have all three of my books in the series get very favorable reviews. 

Here's the take away snippet from the review, "Big trucks, jovial dogs and snappy rhyming text serve again as the building blocks of another successful entry in this solidly built series. (Picture book. 3-8)"

New Ad for Publisher's Weekly

I've been working on a little animated GIF ad for Publisher's Weekly. I'm struggling to get the file size down to an acceptable number without sacrificing the image quality too much. 

I think I'm losing the battle...

Hopefully they won't notice that I'm WAY over the limit of 40K. But at 197K, it's significantly smaller than my original 720. And that should count for something, right?
