Meet Children's Author, Margot Finke

Posted by Kimberly Michalski Posted on: 03/17/09

Meet Children's Author, Margot Finke

Margot Finke is an Aussie transplant who writes midgrade adventure fiction and rhyming picture books. She has lived in Oregon with her husband and family many years.

Margot didn't begin serious writing until the day their youngest left for college. This late start drives her writing, and pushes her to work at it every day. Margot says, "I really envy those who began young, and managed to slip into writing mode between kid fights, diaper changes, household disasters, and outside jobs. You are my heroes! "

Margot's 7 book, rhyming series offers fun facts about animals from the US and Australia - great quality, educational and fun!

Kangaroos, Koalas, Kookaburras, Tasmanian Devils, Platypus, Aussie Parrots, Grizzly Bears,  Skunks, Bald Eagles, Prairie Dogs, Hummingbirds, and many more.  In Download or Autographed CD.

Many PBs in this series contain facts about three different animals.
Sample verses, illustrations and reviews here.

Rattlesnake Jam - Autographed Print + CD & e-Book Download.

Visit: "Gran's Kitchen" for genuine rattlesnake recipes.

Visit: Down Under Fun or Wild US Critters for more fun facts about ALL the animals in her books.
 
Margot's Website -  http://www.margotfinke.com  showcases her Children's Books, Musings Column, and Manuscript Critique Service. There are also many helpful writing suggestions, and links for upcoming writers to explore.

Her BLOG  - http://margotfinke.blogspot.com/   offers writing information, news of children's books, + writing articles. A cool book trailer, and a collage of her book covers wraps it up. Oh. . . plus the odd rant from Margot.
