Monsters. Irredeemable. Unreformable.

Light blue book cover (DINOSAUR DAYS) on dark blue background.
Happiest of book birthdays to @pippinmathur.bsky.social and DINOSAUR DAYS!
Dinosaurs don't always know how to behave, but they certainly have a lot of fun. Join a #dinosaur as she romps through her day, wreaking havoc in this joyful celebration of childhood. #dinosaurs #picturebook

Courtney laughed and she and a student strike poses during a book signing
Courtney stands in front of a stage where an image from her book, Itβs Holi is displayed
Courtney stands on the corner of an auditorium stage, with a drawing of her puppy displayed on the big screen
I was the visiting author for the Young Authors celebration in the Shenandoah Valley.
For 4 days, I gave presentations and talked to students, teachers, reading specialists and librarians about books, writing and art.
It was an amazing, inspiring & uplifting experience. #schoolvisitsarethebest
