New review for SPELLING IT OUT up at PW. Of all the books I’ve written, this one is my husband’s favorite. I think it’s because he is introspective and stays true to himself. It’s available May, 13.

Thank you so much for reading! #bookposse is the best.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Ben’s story will resonate with so many.  My own grandmother and father in law began with forgetting things. Ben’s spelling journey and family journey will capture your heart.
Heading to you, @destinylawyer #bookposse @barbfisch @simonkids.bsky.social @finneganbegin.bsky.social

What inspires more #delight than a video of a dog? A video of a dog opening a box full of books. In this case, the box is full of my author copies of SPELLING IT OUT, which drops May 13, 2025. If you like, spelling, and nerds, and funny kids, full of heart, you’re gonna like this book.

Less than a month to go before this puppy drops! I can hardly believe that it is almost May! So excited for you to meet Ben and Asha.

Do you know what is not a #delight? Grading 8 million papers. But strawberry shortcake? Now that is a delight!

Some places in Southern California have peacocks. My neighborhood does not, but guess what I saw walking? #Delight
