Got THE BEST compliment from a bookseller yesterday while talking about M IS FOR MASON JAR: "Were you once a teacher?" 😆 No, but I always dreamed about being one. Now I write educational books for kids! 🥰 #KidLit #PictureBooks #edusky #booksky #bookstores

Hooray for @carolynbfraiser.bsky.social and her beautiful books!!! Did you know she used to climb trees to hide from her neighbors and escape into a book?! Good thing she doesn’t need to hide away anymore because we need her to write and share all of her books with us! ✨📚

A new educational HI-LO title out in the world! Now I have 3.
