Meet
OLIVE LITTLE! The newest member of Mrs. Z’s Class

Olive Little loves making things ... but she's still working out how to make friends. After she spies some other kids checking out crafting books from the school library, Olive gets a brilliant idea: She'll start a crafting club!

With a super-extraordinarily crafty invitation, everyone will surely want to join Olive's new club. And she knows just the invitation to make. All she needs is a perfect poem, some colorful confetti, a dozen eggshells, and some crafty know-how. Easy peasy!

Until Olive discovers a local skunk has made its home in her family's backyard henhouse! Can she craft a solution to the stinky situation in time to save her club?

Both sweetly poignant and laugh-out-loud funny, with black-and-white illustrations by Pura Belpre Honor artist Kat Fajardo.

hello!

 

Here you’ll find some stuff about me, about writing, and about my books, school visits, and workshops. I’m always eager to hear from you.

Welcome to my crooked little corner of the world..png
