I have been writing since I was a child, and I’m a poetry blogger at PoetryPop.com, so getting an offer on a poetry book for littles is a dream come true—my two passions combined!
I am thrilled to share the cover for the first time today! Many thanks to my agent Tracy Marchini at Bookends Junior Literary Agency, who found Peek-a-Boo Haiku the perfect home with Simon & Schuster (Little Simon), and to amazing illustrator, Tegan White, who brought my words to life.


This poetic lift-the-flap board book features haikus about hidden woodland animals, plus flaps that reveal those animals!
Warm breezes blowing,
pond open for summer fun—
slip, slide, belly ride!
(Peek-a-boo, OTTER!)
Each haiku in this lift-the-flap board book will have readers guessing the animal it describes—with the answer revealed under a flap on each page! With lovely text, sweet illustrations, and cute creatures, this lyrical and interactive book is a joy to read!
