Dr. Pat always knew that she would grow up to be a teacher of music appreciation. For more than thirty years, she did just that. Along the way, she also became a school administrator and a writer. Her writings included papers for four academic degrees, letters to her sons written late at night at the kitchen table, and some of the most entertaining emails her friends get. Now retired, she writes about subjects that interest her. This is her first children’s book. Other children’s books are planned, as well as books in other genres.
