About the Author

About the author … With a Masters degree in education and in English, the author has taught reading and writing to children. She has also been helping individuals, families, and groups find greater meaning and balance in their lives. This is one of her acorn books. “Why acorn?” Well, she’d tell you about the time she was writing something that suddenly felt too big for her, that she wasn’t up to it. She was in the middle of a writer’s block. So, she picked up her journal and started writing about the writer’s block when she realized: Don’t try to write. Be like the acorn. It doesn’t try to be an oak tree. Relax and let life grow through you. And so the acorn has become a symbol of simply being, of strength, and of peace. About the illustrator … Her joy in life is working with color and nature. She had a wonderful time researching and painting this book. Mr. Sea Slug has taken her on a magical journey of color and wonder that lives deep in our seas and oceans. She hopes her illustrations will fill you with as much joy as they have for her and that the sea slug and his friends become a special part of your life too. “May the sea remain a beautiful, colorful world that we can appreciate and wonder at all our lives.”
