A Bit More Bio ~
Heather started writing at the tender age of nine when she was bitten by a Jabberwocky, entered a state of literary amazement, and never fully recovered. She graduated from Santa Clara University with a bachelor's degree in English (and lots of notebooks filled with poems) and worked 15 years as a proofreader/copy editor for engineering firms. A love of rhythmic language and short writing forms eventually led her to writing picture books, and she's never looked back. Heather lives in the Bay Area with her family and several shelves full of picture books. Her debut book, SMALL MATTERS: The Hidden Power of the Unseen, offers readers (ages 4-9) a peek at nano-sized animal features, through a scanning electron microscope. It's is available through all major distributors and lernerbooks.com. Check out this excerpt and see for yourself why small MATTERS! Stay tuned...two more picture books are on the way: NATURE IS A SCULPTOR (Millbrook Press) and IN A CAVE (Gnome Road Publishing). Good News
