Salamanders and Sea Turtles During my time here at Ball State I was invited to join the Conservation Tales team, a children's book series teaching children's grades 3 - 5 about the importance of conservation of animals in the wild and introducing many different species of endangered animals. My first book was about Salamanders, the book was completed this past winter and is available for sale at http://www.conservationtales.com/ This semester I am working on the next book about Sea Turtles! We just got back from a research trip down in Florida, investigating and researching about our next set of animals, Sea Turtles, Manatees, and Seahorses. We were also personally invited to Mote Marine in Sarasota Florida to learn more about how to help these animals in the wild as well as accurately portraying these animals. It was amazing and I'm ready to go back. But most of all I am so, so happy to have started my career as a children's book illustrator, a dream come true....
