About Us
For many years we have lived in an old yellow farmhouse on the coast of Maine. It is a quiet place of trees and fields and saltwater coves. Our house and barn have been home to a cow, a pig, four sheep, a guinea pig, a white rabbit, three dogs, a cat, 23 chickens, three goats and mice in the walls. We enjoy visiting schools and libraries to read to children when we can. We have two adult daughters who looked very much like the two smallest sisters in The Three Silly Girls Grubb when they were small.Contact Us

New book to be released in the spring of 2011!!!
Nana Quimby has baked a cake when she discovers that her cellar is filled to the top with water. “Too much water!” Nana cries. The plumber arrives and soon the water is gone. But Nana’s troubles have only just begun. She hears a thump-thump-bang at the cellar door. Too many frogs jump, bump, and bounce across the kitchen floor. “Too many frogs!” Nana cries. When the neighborhood children try to help, things only get worse…till Nana Quimby finds the solution that works best!
You can discover the brilliant scheme Nana uses to solve her frog problem when “Too Many Frogs” becomes available in stores in 2011. Hang in there till then!!!
