AI Disclaimer: Some interior illustrations in this book were created with the assistance of ChatGPT by the Master Books design team Growing up on a dairy farm in southern Pennsylvania, Nancy was an avid reader. You could find her perched up high in an apple tree reading Little Women or floating on a raft in the middle of the farm pond with her future sister-in-law, taking turns reading aloud Pride and Prejudice. At 20, she moved out to California where she met her educator husband and California native, Jeff. Together as a team, Nancy and Jeff have written several books for teachers, with Jeff’s expertise as a retired fourth grade teacher often influencing and guiding many of Nancy’s books and manuscripts. Together, Nancy and Jeff have traveled on research trips for Nancy’s book projects, at times taking photographs, which have been published in several of her books. They have two grown sons, two beautiful daughters-in law, and four young grandchildren who already love books as much as their favorite blankies. Over the years, Nancy has specialized in writing nonfiction, beginning readers, and retold Bible stories. Her passion is board books and picture books, while she also loves writing for elementary and middle-grade readers.
