"Like Judy Blume, [Robin Cruise] tackles serious issues but offers many opportunities for laughter."

I’m hardly prolific as an author, but I’m grateful that the books I’ve written have been beautifully published and generously praised. I typically have a few writing projects mulching—some for adults and others for young readers.

I've written many elementary texts for noteworthy educational publishers, including Harcourt School Publishers, McGraw-Hill, Pearson Education, TIME for Kids, The Wright Group, and others.

But the stories I’m most interested in shaping and sharing link directly to my own experiences in the context of

family and friends. I think of those tales as small stories with big ripples, as in these titles for young readers

published to generous acclaim by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt and Farrar, Straus and Giroux.
