About the Author
Deborah Dean is a teacher who has taught junior high, high school, and university students. The author of many books and articles, she loves thinking about how to help students of all ages develop as writers and readers. She has used picturebooks in her teaching for most of her career and can't resist a display of picturebooks if she is close to one (it takes strong arms to pull her away!). In her spare time, she likes to read (all kinds of books, including picturebooks), travel with her husband, and make cookies with her grandchildren.Dimensions (Overall): 9.2 Inches (H) x 7.4 Inches (W) x .7 Inches (D)
