I am thrilled to announce my newest picture book, A Place To Call Home, illustrated by Mary Atwood and published by Tilbury House Publishers, an imprint of Sleeping Bear Press.
This rhyming picture book explores sustainable homes from around the world. Publication is now scheduled for Spring 2026.
We are in the process of coming up with a new title for this book since there appear to be many books out there with the same title. I’d love your suggestions. Please leave them in the comments! Thank you so much!
