The niece of a children's librarian, Nancy was surrounded by "discarded" children's picture books long before she could read. Although the pages were torn and the bindings worn, these books were a gold mine to her and she spent hours pouring over their pictures and making up her own stories. By the time she started school, Nancy knew she wanted to be a writer.
With a lifelong passion to share her love of reading and writing with children, Nancy has spent hundreds of hours in the classroom working one-on-one with students and leading entire classes through her fun and hands-on workshops. A graduate of the Institute of Children's Literature, she also has a BA degree in Journalism. Nancy has developed reading readiness curriculums, English as a second language course, is a published poet, and writes picture book for children in both prose and rhyming verse.
With three grown children and a grandson, she has plenty of inspiration for creating stories that children love to hear again and again.
