Her teaching experience has allowed her to fully recognize the tremendous power of books. Laura believes that engaging young students in books is a joy like none other, as children truly thrive when they are exposed to countless stories. The concept of this children’s book came to Laura in a dream one night. She quickly decided to take this dream and turn it into a story that she could share with her kindergarten students. Laura resides in Oregon, Wisconsin with her husband, John and two children, Sarah and Andrew.
