A full-time dreamer, a world-traveling grandma, a children's book author, and a free-spirited artist - meet Kim Marie, one of the Taradiddle Youth Writing Contest judges! When Kim's son was three years old, she looked for a book that would help him learn the sounds of the letters - and especially one that has a complete story, from beginning, middle, and end. She was never able to find one. Then, when her daughter was the same age and she still couldn't find the right book, Kim decided to write it! Thus, her book, A to Z Animal Picnic was born. Kim says that she is honored to be a Taradiddle Youth Writing Contest judge. "I’m looking forward to reading the contest submissions," says Kim. "I wish the best to all of the contestants!"
