For some time, I have recommend Jen Robinson as the go-to person for insightful & terrifically written reviews of children's books. Because I admire her intelligence and thoroughness, I was thrilled to read her review of Thanksgiving: The True Story. Here is the link: http://jkrbooks.typepad.com/blog2008/11/thanksgiving-the-true-story-penny-colman.html
I have published many articles, essays, a one-act play, stories, and books. In 2001, I started teaching at Teachers College, Columbia University. Since 2003, I have been a Distinguished Lecturer at Queens College, The City University of New York.
I live and write in Englewood, New Jersey. I also write at my bungalow on a barrier island off the coast of New Jersey. In my free time you might find me reading in a library or archive; wandering through a museum or historic site; exploring cemeteries to find graves of historic people I write about; going to every type of bookstore, especially used bookstores; driving on long trips; taking long walks; listening to music, kayaking; doing puzzles and playing Scrabble; and thinking and talking about ideas.
