Children's Book Writer & Playwright![]() Hello! I just spent four wonderful, snowy days in Yosemite. JOY! JEANS! The Musical All seven of my Native American Series are now available! Comanche Indians, Seminole Indians, Iroquois Indians, Inuit Indians, Shawnee Indians, Lakota Indians, Navajo Indians are published by Heinemann Library Publishers--in hardcover and paperback. The tribal experts are happy with the books and so are the teachers and kids who have seen them. When I was writing and researching these books, I wore something made by a person from the tribe. An Iroquois "No-face doll" necklace made by Rita Chrisjohn Benson was one of my favorites. A Navajo sandpainting called "Thunder" sits on a shelf near my computer and a beautiful Comanche doll made by Alice Comer watches while I write. This site was last updated on: February 12, 2008 |
