3321 M&W Author Profile: Mary Ann Hoberman

Mary Ann Hoberman is a wonderful children’s author who writes books and poems. She was born on August 12, 1930, and says that since she was a little girl she knew that she wanted to write and be an author. Some of her more famous books include the You Read to Me, I’ll Read to You series. These books are fun stories to read any time, but especially for one on one reading like at bedtime. You can take turns with the child, you read one page, and they read the next. There are four books in this series, all which are delightful! I really did enjoy her website http://www.maryannhoberman.com. There you can easily find all of her books she has written, her poems, a biography, and other links. I really like how the book section is put together; it is a picture of the cover page of all of her books. This makes it especially easy to remember the book whenever you go to the bookstore! I remember seeing so many of her books at Barnes and Nobles whenever I was there last :)
