Day 5/19: My 5-year-olds Favorite Page!
It's day 5 of "The Waga-Laga Bugs" Kickstarter, so I thought I'd share my 5yo's favorite page! The page turn here is a kid-favorite (this is also my toddlers favorite- he yells "BOOM"!).

Why does December 31st feel so far away from January?!
2026 is starting off with a bang for me as I prepare to launch my first ever Kickstarter🫣 My campaign will have some sneak-peeks at the interior pages! I'm so excited to show you all!

I started this writing journey in 2021, but 2025 was the year I finally felt like an author. It was a year for the books (literally), and I am SO EXCITED for 2026... the year of The Waga-Laga Bugs!

With #Storystorm on the 1st, my Waga-Laga Bugs Kickstarter launching on the 5th, and the kids starting school, January is going to be a BUSY month!
I highly recommend you check out @taralazar's blog and sign up for this year's Storystorm!

Recording this sing-along was SO much fun, and I'm so excited for little Yoto users to read and sing along to "Bananas in the Bath"!
If you have a Yoto Player, be sure to check it out in the Open Mic section🎉

I get asked this a surprising amount, and I get it! Board books are tricky, especially glossy ones like mine. They smear, smudge, and make a smess😂😭

I went 2 weeks with no sales (or so I thought), then BAM!
-I sold out at one location,
-another wants 10 more books
-and someone ordered a book bundle from my website!
BONUS: someone let me know their kid carries their copy around AND sleeps with it

ENJOY!🥳
