Maria with husband Toby, and children Leif (2) and Kaia (7) |
She told me that she lives just outside of Asheville, NC in a 16-sided cordwood house on a small homestead. She says, "For my daughter's 7th birthday I wanted to write her a short story. Somehow this little story has spiraled into a completed chapter book that I am totally in love with. (I know, it's my work, but it's nice to be proud of what you've created, right?)"
I agree. As writers it's nice to be proud of the work which we create!
I hope that Teaching the Story will help Maria craft her own stories as well as those her children write too.

Thanks so much, Carol! I just received the book in the mail today. I can't wait to delve into it!
Glad you're excited, Maria. Looking forward to hearing what you think.
YAY MARIA! From one homeschooling mom to another, Carol's book is WONDERFUL!
