One day our neighbors brought home an unusual pet from South Africa, an Ostrich named Francis. Alexa had to go on safari, so Kurt had to keep him for a week. The town was having a race and Kurt, who needed money for a motorbike, decided to race Francis in the animal race. She wins and they become best friends.

She has been writing for years, but didn’t have a children’s book published until now. She is the mother of three children, a wife, and homemaker.
