Cheryl is the author of three children’s books. Her latest is King’s Ransom, reviewed here on Tuesday, January 29, 2013. Cheryl is a retired teacher, with passion for working with kids, especially with their writing skills. Her Medieval Writing Workshops are held for local elementary and middle grade students and girls who are members of the Colorado Girl Scouts. Of these workshops, Cheryl states, “ I’m not the only one who loves Medieval Times and the King Arthur Legend. The kids thoroughly enjoy writing their own medieval stories complete with dragons, wizards, unicorns, and knights!” Cheryl is a member of the Colorado Authors’ League and can be seen twice a month as part of the new Kid Lit Blog Hop.

You may not be the target audience but that doesn’t mean you cannot enjoy them. I have three or four more fractured fairy takes to review in the coming month. If you like graphic novels, in February I will host a graphic novel week.
