About
Elizabeth spent 16 years as a classroom teacher before venturing into writing. She has taught elementary school, middle school, high school, and at the collegiate level where she worked with graduate students pursuing teacher certification.
Inspired by her energetic youngster and his love for books, she took her background in education and meshed it with his childhood interests. The result was children's books.
She is now an award-winning author, creating books for kids that engage the heart and mind.
While a Maryland native, Elizabeth currently lives in Colorado with her family in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains.
Featured Work
All by Myself: (But Sometimes I Need a Little Help!)
I can do many things all by myself, but sometimes I need a little help.
A young child boasts about all the new things they can do such as stack blocks, connect two puzzle pieces, and put on their shoes. When it comes time to build a castle, complete a full puzzle, or tie their laces, they may have to ask for help. And that's okay!
