Thanks to Beth, I’ve just found my new motto for writing children’s stories. I’ve written my children’s books so that parents and grandparents would enjoy them as much as children, and this quote Beth posted perfectly fits that focus.

With Love,

We have 3 adult children and 5 grandchildren. I manage a wealth management firm that I founded in 2003. My Beloved is a Special Education teacher for Kindergartners and First Graders.

Yes, you have written for the child in each of us. Reminiscent of Bill Peet. You know his books, yes? Especially The Wingdingdilly. It’s right up your alley. I need to check out your Hoozy Whatzadingle

  Hi, Jan. I don’t think I’ve heard of Bill Peet or The Wingdingdilly, but it sounds like I should. I plan to check it out. Thank you for your suggestion and for your interest in Hoozy Whatzadingle. May the crazy guy not fail to make you smile.
