Hi! It's Anika. Welcome! Here, you'll find information about my books, sneak peeks at works-in-progress, reviews, news about events and where in the world I am when not running around with my three daughters, or sitting at my desk writing a story.

I love hearing from readers, so feel free to send me an email if you have a question about books, writing, school visits, or how to make the famous chocolate chip cookies I bring with me to book signings. (It's a super-secret recipe, but I'll tell you.) You can also check out the nifty "Frequently Asked Questions" section for author-ish tidbits and helpful links.  

Check out a clip of an original film:

"What's Your Story?"

We interviewed some smart and funny young readers about their story ideas, books and reading.

 This short film is part of our elementary school visit program.
