Author Information

After receiving her Masters in Teaching from George Fox University, Theresa thoroughly enjoyed teaching kindergarten, first and second grade for nearly 20 years. In her classroom, she created a world where the letters can finally talk for themselves and explain the myriad of sounds they produce. Why? Because her students struggled with simple words, often because ""one letter makes one sound"" does not hold true in English. Her continued passion to help students succeed is the impetus to expose, through her stories, the secret lives of letters that surround us.She lives in the Pacific Northwest with her cats, Yama and Zuki. She has two grown sons and looks forward to sharing these stories with her grandchildren.
