We had the exciting opportunity to spend the day with Candace Fleming author of Muncha, Muncha, Muncha, Tippy, Tippy Tippy Hide, Boxes for Katje and many more. We learned that the best authors are storytellers that take their life experiences, add a little imagination and weave it into a special tale. It takes a lot of work and versions to create a story you "love".
