Welcome to the Manatee and Ocean School. I am so excited to take you on some amazing adventures, and field trips. With the hopes of opening your eyes, your ears, your brain and your soul to all of the gifts and miracles mother nature gives us. I have been blessed with so many unique opportunities as I have witnessed the treasures and the interactions of the beauty of nature. It is these miracles of life that I want to showcase for all of you as the Manatee and Ocean School teaches you about habitats, sustainable habitats, wetlands, the ocean, water, you can even join them for science question day. d so much more as you read, learn, and do the worksheets in the back of every book.
As of today’s date, I have illustrated and written three books. The illustrations come directly from the souls of the creatures and plants I have had a lifetime of getting to know. It is clear to me that mother nature is our best teacher. It is through her efforts that we have the life sustaining air we breathe and the water we drink. I am constantly in awe of how not one single detail was forgotten as the world around us was created..I have witnessed first hand how the dance to try and keep that ever so perfect balance in nature is in tormal. I know with every cell in my body that if I give a voice to the animals, the plants, the water, the air, and all of the life around us together we can, we will, we must be the forward pioneers of today and tomorrow. .
