Karen Nyberg's story shares how she gazed at Earth from space and saw no country borders, no hunger, no war or other worldly problems. It's this patchwork of people and places symbolized in star-themed quilts that resonates with me. Thank you for sharing this story, Karen!

One of the best things about being a children's book author is the chance to get into schools. There's something in my DNA about getting in front of kids and engaging with something meaningful. Now booking for "A Quilt of Stars" (Available for pre-orders now)
