“Throughout my childhood I was encouraged to make pictures, tell stories, act, and dance”

I don’t know what will be next. I like to think in the

words of my character Elana Rose Rosen at the

end of my book Scooter;

'And no one in the whole wide world will ever be

able to tell all the wonderful places we will go and

all the wonderful things we will do.’
