Longlisted!

I'm a huge fan of Amy's podcast, so I was thrilled to be a guest on her show. I started listening when I was a newbie teacher-librarian and later recommended the podcast to my students when I taught teacher-librarianship courses at the University of Toronto. We chatted about my days in the school library as well as my journey to becoming an author of books for children. 

I have so many wonderful memories of my time teaching overseas. The schools I worked at, the countries I calle dhome, and the people I met have all had a significant impact on my life. So, I was thrilled when I had the chance to include The Buzz About the Party in the TIE Online Blog post by children's author and global adventurer,  Margriet Ruurs.

I loved chatting with Sam from the becoming babyREADY podcast. We talked about how I met my husband (thank you Triggerfish Waterpolo!), our path to parenthood through egg donations, surrogacy and IVF, as well as how I got started as a children's author. 

Check out my interview with Nathan and Jason from the 2 Gay Dads podcast. We chat about LGBTQ+ parenting, my life as a writer for kids, and the important role that school libraries play in education.
