Reading should begin with infants and continue throughout their pre-school years. No child is too young to have books read to them. Sonya discovered a love and fascination for children's books from listening to her mother read fairy tales and other books to her as a child. When her three children were young, she took great pleasure in reading to them and in recent years has been delighted to read to her six grandchildren. Sonya has learned much from her many years of experience with children. In addition to spending time with her children and grandchildren, Sonya enjoys attending the activities in which her grandchildren participate, taking long walks with her dogs, volunteering at the local animal shelter, being outdoors, and tending her flower gardens. Sonya hopes children will enjoy having A Shark in the Tub read to them as much as she enjoyed writing it for them!view less
