About the Author

I didn’t know English until I went to Kindergarten at age five. As I learned to read, I fell in love with the written word and knew that someday I would write.

Life got in the way, and now I am seventy-four years old. I have thirty-five grandchildren and eighteen great-grandchildren from the eleven wonderful children that I am so blessed with.

This is a very exciting time in my life, as I have taken out what I have written over the years and realized that that the time is now. It is time to put my thoughts into book form so that all these children may enjoy them.

What I love about books is that they live on and will touch generations that I will not meet on this Earth.

This book came about from true-life experiences and sweet dreams. I pray that these children will think of me as they read and enjoy this little book that has been in my heart all these years.

You see, I was Baby Jovi.
