I'm excited to tell you that there is another local children's author/children's librarian in the Monterey Bay Area. Carol Diggory Shields has written more than a dozen books for young readers, and she is the children's librarian at the Seaside Branch of the Monterey County Free Libraries. You can check out all of her wonderful titles on Amazon.com, including:
SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE DINOSAUR STOMP
THE BUGLIEST BUG
FOOD FIGHT!
I WISH MY BROTHER WAS A DOG
and her newest book: BABY'S GOT THE BLUES

Just got back from a fun week of book signing! On Thursday, the Pacific Grove Public Library held a book signing "celebration" in honor of WHEN THE WIND BLEW. Then I drove down for two book signing events in Huntington Beach and in Fullerton, where I used to work as a children's librarian. It was all great fun!
