A Fun School Visit

I'd like to say thanks to Renaissance Academy for being kind enough to invite me to speak at their school, and in honor of Dr. Seuss' birthday. It was a lot of fun getting to meet all the student from Kindergarten to 6th grade.

My Visit included reading the book, talking about my inspiration for the story and characters, and well as the tools used to do my illustrations. I demonstrated to the kids how to draw Timmy, the old sea turtle, and the hammer head shark from my story. I also took questions from the kids, and signed copies of the Timmy's Quest.

The Kids were all very nice, and very enthusiastic, which made the presentation a lot of fun for everyone. I've posted some pictures from the event below, you can also see more on the Libraries website, here.

School Visit

I am happy to announce that March 2nd I will be visiting the Renaissance Academy in Phoenixville PA to do a presentation about my book, writing, and the publishing process. I will be doing 3 presentations for grades K-6. I will also be signing copies of my book for the kids. Should be a lot of fun.

The Realoscope

In addition to "Below to the Waves" I also illustrated another children's book by author Lance Okones, called "The Realoscope of Ringgold Valley"

It's a fun story about Lisa and Brian, who use an invention called the Realoscope to travel to the moon for a school science project. Along the way they meet Deedle, a friendly green alien that helps them with their projects and leads them on future adventures. This the first book in an ongoing series.

Please visit our website and follow Lisa, Brian and Deedle on their fun filled adventures.

Undersea Fact:

Sailors and other mariners have reported that the ocean often emits a visible glow, or luminescence, which extends for miles at night. In 2005, scientists announced that for the first time, they had obtained photographic evidence of this glow. It may be caused by bioluminescence.

Reviews Section

I've added added a new section to the site called reviews. There visitors will be able to read recent posts and articles featuring "Below the Waves" and link to the full article.
