A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

I'm Gina, a longtime opossum enthusiast who loves to write. I recently left teaching college French to be at home with my infant daughter and to get serious about my writing. In addition to children's books, I also write humor and personal essays on Medium. One of my most successful articles is called "A Possum's Guide to Making Friends & Influencing People." I am the proud, incredibly lucky mother of two bilingual children and wife of an adorable Frenchman. That's one of the reasons I am committed to releasing my books in English, French, and Spanish - because I believe in the value of speaking more than one language. Now I need to brush up on my Spanish (a lot) so I can do readings in three languages. A few of the other hats I wear: dedicated tree-hugger, opossum meme maven, fanatical drinker of Earl Grey tea, world's most uncoordinated Zumba dancer, and admirer of nocturnal animals. My fascination with opossums began because I felt I could identify with their anxious, introverted nature. I saw a kindred spirit behind those sweet, slightly worried looking pointy faces. It started off innocently enough - I joined opossum groups on Facebook and then started making my own memes... One thing led to another, and before I knew it, I was writing a children's book. This process has been a lot of fun, a lot of work, and so much learning. I'm absolutely thrilled (and a little terrified) to be putting a little piece of my soul out into the world.
