Tiny Jumper

The True Story of Tiny Broadwick

I look forward to seeing first through fifth graders to tell them all about Tiny Broadwick,

the FIRST WOMAN to parachute from an airplane and the PERSON who invented the rip cord in mid-air to save her life!

Emma and the Civil Warrior

Emma and the Civil Warrior

I love visiting elementary schools for an hour-long presentation on Emma and the Civil Warrior.

This novel is particularly applicable to the study of North Carolina and/or United States history during the Civil War period in fourth and fifth grade classrooms.
