It's Here!

 

Book launch day, pub day, book birthday, call it what you like, it has arrived! Having a picture book published has a been a dream of mine for years, and here it is! Artist Susanna Covelli did the most charming illustrations I could have hoped for, and the book turned out great. 

If you have any young space fans in your life, please consider adding In Our Solar System to their book collection. Or suggest your library carry a copy. Or drop some not-so-subtle hints at your local bookstore. It is also available from the big booksellers.

And while you're in a bookish mood, check out the many, many wonderful offerings for kids and adults from Familius Books. I have had nothing but great experiences with this company and am so very fortunate to be a part of their family.

In other space news, there's a total lunar eclipse coming up on March 13/14. When the darkest part of Earth's shadow covers the moon, it appears orangeish, which is why it is called a Blood Moon. I'm hoping for clear skies, but if not, there are a few streaming options.

Oh, and if you want to see me in all my awkwardness talking about my picture book inspiration, there's a short YouTube video interview here. 

Take good care, and I'll see you soon!
