Happy Birthday, Cynthia Voigt
Born in Boston on February 25, 1942, Cynthia Voigt was the second of five children. From the time she started high school, she wanted to be an author. She has successfully reached that goal with the publication of nearly 50 juvenile and young adult books. She has also written a couple of dog stories for younger readers. Angus and Sadie appeals to 3rd-5th graders and The Rosie Stories for K-2nd.

Valentine's Day can be almost as scary as Halloween. "How?" you ask? Think about it -- Valentine party + candy/cookies/cupcakes + full moon.
If you're needing a last-second Valentine for your kidlets, go to my shop, Little Red Wagon, on TPT for some free pencil sails. (For some reason it shows the Adobe symbol instead of the product picture. Can anyone help me out with that?) There are 10 different sails on the page.
Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!
