Aunt Eeebs

PRESS RELEASE: January 10,2016

Aunt Eeebs and Sprout have won the prestigious Moonbeam Children's Book Award for their latest children's book, Who Stole Second Base?, which focuses on overcoming bullying. With the awareness of bullying as a global epidemic, their book features the adorable Dino-Buddies in a challenging baseball game against the not-so-very-nice Dino-BuLLies who just won't play fairly. But a baseball glove offers a special message regarding confidence and courage that enables the Dino-Buddies to overcome the bullying tactics of the Dino-BuLLies. Although the Dino-Buddies win the game, they more importantly learn that when you play fairly, you're always a winner!

ABOUT AUNT EEEBS

Aunt Eeebs and Sprout are pseudonyms for a sister and brother team writing and illustrating Dino-Buddies books since 1988.

So - I (...Sprout!) searched for a picture of my sister that I knew would not get me in trouble and this is as close as I would dare. All the other pics had expressions of "'you better not!" 'Eeebs' as she was originally dubbed (by my children), plays a big part in the creative side to make the ideas become refined. When we are "in tune" and "clicking", the cute rhymes and alliterations seem to just appear in our laps. Aunt Eeebs enjoys the signing appearances and loves reading and interfacing with the little ones very much.

Aunt Eeebs offers creative input that makes the adorable Dino-Buddies characters and stories so appealing. Religious and scholarly works are also written by her under another pseudonym as well. Aunt Eeebs graduated top honors Cum Laude - Phi Kappa Phi, all while working and supporting her own way through college.
