Mother Goose

Mother Goose Co-operative Preschool is a non-profit organization that has been active in the community of southwest Hamilton for over 40 years.

More than a school, our co-op is a community of parents joining together to support and encourage our children as they grow and develop. Mother Goose is a great transitional step for children to help them prepare for full time schooling.

My new picture book, Mama's Day with Little Gray, is releasing from Random House. In celebration, there will be a free concert by recording artist and music instructor Martha Krueger. There will also be elephant crafts, elephant tattoos, and an author reading and signing.
 
Take care!
