Hi! I'm Barbara Santucci.
Thanks for stopping by my website.
I love writing children's picture books and I love taking walks and being out in nature. My first two picture books, Loon Summer and Anna's Corn, use nature to deal with difficult topics. My third picture book, Abby's Chairs was released in 2004. It is about Abby who is adjusting
to her new home and feels she has too many chairs. But that's really
not the problem at all!
Part of the reason I enjoy writing so much
is that my characters become my "new" friends. I can see what they look
like, where they live and the people around them in my head. They are
very real to me. I want to create a story about each of my characters
where you will enjoy knowing them too.
Please visit my website often. I'd love to hear from you.
