Enter to win a book!
I'm pleased to announce the title of the next book for a drawing from names on the Facebook Fan Page. On October 21st, I'll draw a winner who'll receive My Grandma's Kitchen Rules by Bill Kirk.

"The endearing relationship between a little girl and her Grandmother, whose tolerance and patience are nearly boundless except when it comes to ants. The double entendre in the title captures the grandma’s sense of fun and the recognition that there are rules, especially in Grandma’s kitchen. 6 pages of activities too!"

We finally met!
Recently I travelled to Michigan to visit with my close friend, Mary. While there, Mary drove me across state to meet Kevin Scott Collier for the first time face to face. We have, of course, talked many times on the phone and through email, but had never actually met. What a joy to finally meet such a talented and sweet man!
Review for Dotty's Topsy Tale - Stories for Children Magazine
"Donna doesn't disappoint us in this newest tale in the Topsy Turvy Land collection. From her smooth rhyme to wild imagination of the animals living in Topsy Turvy Land, children will want to visit Dotty and her friends again and again. Kevin Scott Collier's artwork is vivid and brings each page to life adding the right blend of colors to accent the words written by Donna in Dotty's Topsy Tale.
