Congratulations
on the release of PEANUT BUTTER SANDWICH TO GO. Please tell us more about it.
What was the inspiration for this book?
Scotty is in
the habit of walking around with his food, leaving crumbs all over, rather than
sitting at the table to eat. Mom is in the habit of letting him. One day Mom
decides to use her imagination to fix this growing problem. When Scotty asks to
walk to the clinic where his father works a few blocks away with his peanut
butter and jelly sandwich, Mom says sure—but has he considered all the people
who might ask for a bite of his delicious lunch? When Scotty's sandwich grows
impossibly bigger and bigger in his mind to account for all the people who'll
ask for a bite, he must make a decision about whether it's wiser to keep his
sandwich for himself by sitting at the table to eat it.
Linda:
When I was pregnant, I vowed I would be the kind of mother who would insist
that my children eat only at the table. Somehow the opposite happened! They ate
all over the house! I wrote this story to give a light-hearted reason why it's
important to eat meals at the table.
What is
your favorite moment from the book?
Linda:
When the dog wants to share some of Scotty’s ever-growing sandwich.
Is this
your first published book?
Linda: My
first book, The Missing Stories: Caleb’s Missing Whisper & Other Stories, was
published by Hard Shell Word Factory (currently unavailable). Chip’s Sharing Day was my second
children’s book.
We’d love
to hear more about you.
Linda: I
like to write stories for children that teach them manners and right from wrong
(like sharing with their friends or how to behave in the library) in an amusing
way.
How can
our readers learn more about you and any upcoming events?

Hi Linda and Kai, I just stopped by to lend my support. I have reviewed this book and think it is a great addition to a child's library.
Hi Kai and Linda, I'm also a supporter, and reviewed this book, too. I hope teachers and parents will add it to their libraries. Good manners are always important!
Manners are so important! Thanks ladies for reading and commenting.
