Today, I am delighted to introduce you to childrenโ€™s author, Norah Colvin. Norah is a retired teacher and runs a marvelous educational site called Readilearn which is packed with wonderful teaching aids and ideas for promoting learning among children. Welcome Norah!

I have read and enjoyed a few of your childrenโ€™s pictures books. They comprise of delightful age appropriate stories and lovely illustrations. Is there any particular childrenโ€™s book author whom you admire and consider to be a role model for your writing?

Robbie, thank you so much for inviting me here to talk about my books and favourite authors. There are so many authors whose work I love, itโ€™s hard to know where to start, but I guess if I had to pick just one, Iโ€™d have to say Mem Fox.

    Enjoyed the interview so much!
    And my favorite part –

    often consider my stories to be โ€˜a slice of lifeโ€™, an incident that could occur in any family, an incident that children may identify with. I avoid the darker emotions and try for something lighter. Thereโ€™s too much darkness. Let there be light, I say. Learning and life are meant to be fun after all.

    Well
