With 100+ books, I hope you’ll forgive me for not listing them all here. If you’d like a complete list, feel free to contact me directly—or just look me up at your local library or an online store such as Bookshop.org. While I’ve got you, though, I think you’ll love my newest titles, including my picture book, Like No Other: Earth’s Coolest One-of-a-Kind Creatures.
Along with winning the prestigious Orbis Pictus Award, Border Crossings continues to collect accolades including the High Plains Book Award and the Keystone to Reading Elementary Book Awards for 2024-2025. This picture book not only tells a riveting story, it inspires people of all ages to protect the nature that makes our planet the perfect place for all life—including us!


Looking for some great adult reading? Check out my bestselling “How-to” book, Birding for Boomers, a humorous guide for anyone looking to dive into the world’s greatest activity. The book can be ordered from your favorite independent bookstore, directly from the publisher, or Bookshop.org.
Got the travel bug? I can’t recommend a trip to Japan highly enough—and you will want to make sure you consult First-Time Japan as you plan your adventure of a lifetime. Unlike other guidebooks, which gloss over the important “how” of doing things, First-Time Japan tells you exactly how to buy transportation tickets, decide where to stay, what to bring with you, and make many other key decisions. This reduces stress and creates more mental space to get excited! Order now.
