PLEASE WELCOME JESSICA TO BOOKHOUNDS!

What is the first book you remember reading by yourself as a child?

It was one of those 1st grade readers, called “Pug,” about a brown dog. “Pug! Oh, oh, Pug! We let you ride, Pug! Ride, Pug, ride!” I was so excited! Then I lost the reader and my parents had to pay for it . . . it’s whereabouts are still a mystery to this day!

 What are you reading right now?

Cate of the Lost Colony by Lisa Klein, a wonderful historical YA about the Roanoke Colony. And Ian Fleming’s Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, to the kids.

 How does your garden grow?

A nice man comes on Mondays and handles that, lest I kill all the plants.

What is the last thing you Googled?

“What do the eggs look like in the Dragon Story app?” I’m so addicted to that game!

What makes you cringe?

When people say, “Oh, you write kids’ books? I bet if you set your mind to it, you could write for adults, too!”
