Additional Material

My work has frequently been chosen for Children’s Books of the Year exhibitions and publications, and has been mentioned in various other publications. I have poems in a number of anthologies.  There have been numerous reviews in national newspapers, interviews with the press, on radio and on television. Editions of my books have been published in USA, France, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Holland and Denmark. Recently The Mouse of Gold, which I illustrated for Jennifer Doherty and Geraldn Goldin, has been translated into Arabic and has been published as a dual language edition in Israel.  This will be followed by a similar translation of The Fierce and Gentle Wolf.
