I’m Jean, and I am so excited you
are here.
Writing books has been a dream
come true for me. It is a way to combine my love of children and
nature into books that children will enjoy and learn from.
I hope that my books make you smile. The importance of
reading to our children is a gift to them (and to us) that
cannot be overstated.
I would like to thank you with my entire heart for
purchasing my books. I have an indescribable feeling of joy
knowing that you are sharing my books with precious children!
If you have enjoyed reading my books as much as I have
enjoyed writing them, please consider taking a minute to leave a
review on Amazon!
Many thanks! -Jean
My
second book, Oki Makes a Round Trip |
My second book, Oki
Makes a Round Trip, was inspired by my time sitting
at sea turtle nests on Oak Island in North Carolina.
The first time I saw a
nest “boil over” was truly wonderful. These adorable
little hatchlings knew instinctively to go straight to
the ocean to start their journey.
It is just an
incredible experience to watch. Dive into the wondrous
world of sea turtles with Oki as your guide! |
My first book, The Start of
Something Lovely, was inspired by my personal true story.
Join Rosy on her first day of kindergarten where she discovers a
magical surprise that changes her life forever. My love of
gardening started in kindergarten with the gift of rose bouquets
from the gardener for the rose garden in Ritter Park in
Huntington, WV.

I love people, reading, and gardening, and hope that my books
