Little Sparks That Inspired My 8 Children’s Books


Ever wondered where stories come from? Here’s a peek into the little sparks that inspired my 8 children’s books:

🎃 The Roll-Away Pumpkin — my love for autumn colors, crunchy leaves, and a cozy bowl of pumpkin soup.

🥔 Zachary and the Great Potato Catastrophe — based on a clever rat who really did stash potatoes under the floorboards of a local bakery!

👾 The Night the Monsters Came — it began with a single quatrain that popped into my head, and the rest simply tumbled out.

💨 A Halloween Farty Party — born from a family dare to write a fart book that’s cheeky, never crass. Challenge accepted!

❤️ I Love You Through Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall — words from a dream that lingered when I woke up, and became a gentle refrain.

🎓 Let’s Celebrate You! — what started as a poem for graduates grew into its very own keepsake book.

Have You Ever Wondered What You Will Be? — written in one magical afternoon, from title to final page. It’s never happened again!

The Roll-Away Snowman — created to capture the winter wonder of Daniela Volpari’s stunning snowy illustrations.

📖 Cozy, magical, whimsical read-alouds — perfect to share with little readers at home or in the classroom. ✨
