Tell us a little about yourself. I love children. I have written 35 books for
children of all ages. At this time I am writing
10 books for Zondervan Publishing House. My
books have won many awards and have sales of over
1,300,000. I hope children and their families
will be blessed when they read one of my books.
What was your motivation behind this project? I wanted to show the character of God and His
plan for us as revealed in the creatures He made.
It was fascinating to me to discover so many
lessons and concepts that I could learn from the
various birds, animals, and insects God made.
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? In this book I highlight some interesting
characteristics about God's creatures. Then I
found something from the Bible that also fit with
the lesson to be learned. Lastly, I applied
these truths to children as I tried to help them
discover what it all means for each of their
lives today.
Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists? My own three children inspired me to write books!
And the children I teach and work with today
still inspire me to write.
Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: One of the favorite things I enjoy sharing with
children are the true-life stories of other kids
today. I hope children will read my devotionals
which are full of these true stories: WHAT WOULD
JESUS DO TODAY and WALKING WITH JESUS, One Step
at a Time.
