Cover Reveal!!

   The Heart of Bakers and Artists (aka Daily Bread) has a brand new look. 

What do you think? The children’s book illustrator, Penny Weber, captured my little hero, Lily, perfectly. She looks as I had pictured her, and the song in her heart shows through. 

Thank you, Penny, for an excellent job well done.

And special bear-hug thanks to Stephanie Larkin, the head penguin at Red Penguin Books. Stephanie has taken the leap and time to get this book re-titled (for better searchable keyword analytics-a math thing), re-covered (for greater appeal to the target audience-kids 8-12 years old), and re-released (for the reader world to take notice-readers like you). I am awed and grateful for her vision and energy she puts into all of her Red Penguin projects.   

Enjoy ❤️.   Like 👍.  Share 😊.

Daily Bread is set in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, 1911. The story follows nine-year-old Lily, an American-born child of Sicilian immigrants, who wants to prove she is not a little kid. To be a big kid in the crowded tenement neighborhoods, she must tackle bigotry, bullies, disasters, dotty bakers, and learn to cross the street by herself
Hope you are hungry. Becoming America’s Food Stories recalls the tales that have been told around my family’s dinner table. The histories explain the motivations over bowls of macaroni, antics play out while slurping soup, and laughter echoes throughout the dining room. Pull up a seat. There’s always room.
