Welcome to my children's picture book manuscript page!

I have written several children's picture books that I am currently illustrating. My stories (typically for ages 2-5) validate individualism, celebrate the parent-child relationship, and are written and illustrated with love and humor. I am not published but will hope to query for agent representation soon!

Animal Nature Series

This series of four books, written in verse, celebrates who children are as individuals. I pulled on my experience as a career evaluator working with people with disabilities to create characters with perceived weaknesses that can be regarded as strengths. I hope to promote the meaningful messages in these stories in schools.

Bed Time, Grumpy Animals

I love this story. It is similar for me to "Go the F*ck to Sleep", except you can actually read it to your kids! This story celebrates the ridiculous and seemingly hours long process of putting kids to bed.

Nearly Ninja

Nearly Ninja

This is a girl power story, inspired by my son asking why there aren't any girl ninjas. It explores the love/hate relationship of siblings and is playful and empowering.

So Big World

Nearly Ninja

Nearly Ninja

I wrote this story as a balm to my heart after worrying about the state of the world. It is a grounding, mindfulness book that is much more for adults, but I hope will comfort children too.
