Do You Know Someone Who's Moving This Summer?

Moving can be difficult for kids - new town, new school, and finding new friends. That was Ruthie’s problem...well, she had a few others.



This entertaining book will help kids learn that they are not the center of the universe. Margot Finkle likes to write in rhyme. You can find more information about of her books at http://mysite.ncnetwork.net/restbcm8/Margot%27s%20Books.htm#NEW  


The book also includes a parent-teacher guide, a coloring sheet, and is avaialble as a printed or an e-book for ages 5 - 12.


Margot Finke is an Aussie transplant who writes mid grade adventure fiction and rhyming picture books. She lives in Oregon with her husband and family. Read Rattlesnake Jam, a picture book published by Guardian Angel and coming soon, Taconi and Claude: Double Trouble, a midgrade adventure for boys set in the Aussie outback.


Her seven book “Wild and Wonderful” rhyming PB series (Writer’s Exchange), is fun and educational. Told in rhyme, they introduce children to cool animals from the US and Australia. Find purchase information about all Margot’s books at: http://www.margotfinke.com/


Margot’s Musings column, and website, offer help for new children’s writers. Her Manuscript Critique Service helps writers iron out beginner problems. Nothing gives her a greater thrill than discovering a book she helped a writer polish has been published.
