The book is about the sickness and death of my father. It is written for children. I am a retired elementary school teacher with a BS degree in elementary education and an MS in library science. I taught second and third grades and adult education, then was an elementary librarian. Also, I was a trainer for the accelerated reading program. I have been actively involved with the MS Reading Association. My hobbies include reading, genealogy research, traveling, and being with my three grandchildren. I have lived in rural Mississippi all my life but have traveled to all fifty states and to thirty-three foreign countries. New York is my favorite city.
