I've been a waitress, a cook, an x-ray tech, (18yrs total) and owned my own business (40 years total) making and decorating cakes and wedding cakes and all kinds of chocolates. Molly the mallard duck is a true story. As grandchildren became a part of our life I would tell them the story and they would want it repeated and over. This is what inspired me to publish it as a book for other children to enjoy.  10 years later, I'm retired and have the time to devote to elaborating on the story and writing more children's books. The second one, coming soon is Joey the little duckling, the egg Molly left behind. Available any day. The third one is Joey and Cody  PLAY BALL!  That one I hope to have published by fall.
