I am both honored and grateful to have received an award for my picture book, Where Do Butterflies Go at Night? 2nd Edition.
My book is the 2025 winner in the Poetry Category from Northern Lights Book Awards, who “Honor Children’s Literature of Exceptional Merit.” This is especially meaningful to me as a writer, as writing is something I have loved to do most of my life, and continue to do today.
They wrote, “Thank you for the enchanted time you gave our judges. It was a pleasure and an honor to read your book.” I am humbled.
I am also always grateful for Stella’s beautiful artwork, and that together, in words and images, we can take you through the rich imagination of a child who wonders where these magical butterflies go when daylight fades.
Butterflies is available on Amazon by clicking on the book cover found in the navigation.


Congratulations on the award for your beautiful book!
