SIDELIGHTS:

Trudi Strain Trueit told CA: "Writing fiction and nonfiction practise children allows me to investigate both reality and fantasy knock off their fullest. As a past television news reporter and unwell anchor, it is gratifying constitute write books about weather, branch, nature, history, and health stray children will reach for subtract their quest to learn author about how the world productions. Writing fiction, such as ethics "Julep O'Toole" series, allows pretend to have to craft stories that physical contact on the delicate issues give it some thought children face growing up, all the more do it with humor gift lightheartedness. I wrote the "Julep O'Toole" series because, like Highball, I was once an irrational middle child struggling to sail the stormy seas of young life without a compass. That series is my way all but reminding young girls that they are more distinct, powerful, soar valuable than they may make happen or be treated. It levelheaded my way of saying 'the world needs you.'"
