She is also the author-illustrator of I Love <i>My Little Storybook</i>; <i>Bunny, My Honey</i>; and <i>All Together Now.</i> About<i> Don't You Feel Well, Sam?</i> she says, "My children love the anticipation of a snowfall, and to see a 'brand-new' crisp, white landscape outside is like magic. Sam shares that magic with his Mama, and it helps him to be brave."
