Exciting news! You can now pre-order the book I’ve illustrated, “A Search for the Northern Lights.”
If you want an illustrator-signed copy, you can now pre-order from me. Keep in mind it is showing up in my shop as “available on backorder” because I do not actually have any copies of the book yet as it will not be printed until April.
The pre-orders I receive between now and April will tell me the number of copies I’ll need to purchase from the publisher. I will ship your signed copies to you the second I have them in my hands and have signed them for you, sometime shortly after April 14, 2020.
If you want a copy but you don’t need it signed, you can also pre-order anytime from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or Indie Bound.

A mother-daughter story of an adventure-filled search for the amazing aurora borealis.
Alix and her mom are fascinated by the nighttime light displays in the sky known as auroras, or northern lights, but being able to see them in person proves to be more challenging than expected. Where do they appear? When? How could Alix and her mom get there to see the auroras before they disappear from the sky?
Inspired by the authors’ own experiences, A Search for the Northern Lights brings the reader along on a fascinating journey as Alix and her mom eagerly learn what auroras are and how to find them.
The book also includes science and more information on auroras, plus a helpful guide for those hoping to catch their own glimpse of the incredible northern lights.
