A learning disorder held her back until she was taught the tools to overcome her dyslexia. This sparked Kimberlee's aspiration to write books for children that would bring about the same love of reading she eventually found and encourage even the most reluctant and struggling reader. Kimberlee lives on a small farm in Colorado with her husband, sons, and a gaggling group of barnyard friends.
