Meet the author behind Tater the Investigator

The moment we rescued Tater, his curious nature and knack for investigating everything around him immediately led to his name, "Tater the Investigator." This instantly sparked the idea of his "Tater-tory," and from there, the entire series began to unfold. Writing has always been a passion, stemming from childhood stories and a previous non-fiction project. The true motivation, however, came from my grandson's enthusiastic reaction to the first book. His delight and surprise fueled the rapid publication of Book 2 just a week later! **Update- my grandson decided that Book 3 is actually his favorite! I love it- he keeps me going! :) Check it out!  Book Three just released May 8th! 

Creating interesting and humorous characters for children is incredibly rewarding. The Tater the Investigator series encourages children to be curious, think for themselves and show kindness while helping others. Engaging young readers can ignite a lifelong love for reading, which, as studies show, positively impacts their academic performance, including better scores in reading, math, and spelling. As someone who has experienced rigorous academic journeys, like pharmacy school, I understand the importance of strong foundational skills. My hope is that "Tater the Investigator" books not only entertain and remind us all the importance of kindness to others, but also encourage children to read more, fostering their intellectual growth.
