Dorothy Hinshaw Patent is celebrating the publishing of her 100th children's book. Dorothy is a wonderful author and was a great support for me when I first started writing children's books. She introduced me to her editor, Rosanne Lauer, who published Roland's first book, SEA OTTER RESCUE.

We love Dorothy and hope you will enjoy reading her books as much as we do. You can find her books on Amazon by clicking here.
