Hello! My name is Teresa. I started working from home right after I had my first child. I have been married for 28 years to a wonderful man. My husband drives long distance(truck driver) and is only home a few days a week. I feel that for me, being here at home is the best thing for my family. I was a contract painter for over 15 years at Carin Studios painting Gnomes for Tom Clark. After my kids were all in school, I went back out into the workforce at a well known retail store. That did not work well with my family's demands and after 7 years started with Usborne Books at Home. I also am a photographer part-time at the local hospital in the Birthing Center.

Unique Features of Usborne books: Dual Readers: For those children just starting to read, the dual reader is a great way to build confidence and share a reading experience. The dual readers offer a simple sentence on top of every page and two more complex sentences on the bottom of the page. The child reads the top sentence and an adult reads the bottom few sentences. If just the top sentence is read, the story still makes sense! Dual readers are available in our First Experiences Series, Bible Stories, and in our Fairytale Series.
Internet Linked/Internet Referenced: Usborne Internet-Linked books serve as a gateway to knowledge for fact-hungry children. Visit Usborne Quicklinks (
http://www.usborne-quicklinks.com) to enter the book and page number you are interested in learning more about. This site will provide you with web addresses of safe, content appropriate websites you can visit to research a subject in a fun and informative way. Great for school projects and teachers!
That's Not My... series: This delightful series of board books is aimed at very young children. The bright pictures, with their patches of different textures, are designed to develop sensory and language awareness. Babies and toddlers will love turning the pages and touching the feely patches.
Sticker Books- There is a topic for every interest! Some help first readers with word identification, while others inspire creativity with dressing ballerinas to watching trucks go on the road!

Thank you everso-much for your kind comment and information you gave me, very much appreciated indeed!
I'll get an email off this afternoon :)
Thanks once again,
Best wishes, Matt.
I'm very new here and this is probably NOT the way to do this, so firstly, my apologies!
I'm very interested in illustrating children's books and have had a couple of books published written by Andrew scott (www.letsplayrecorder.com). How would you suggest I go about this? If you dont mind me asking. Any advice you could offer would be gratefully recieved. As per my profile I do have an online portfolio here: http://s369.photobucket.com/albums/oo137/mattiej/
which does have a fair old bit of childrens related artwork on it.
Thank you in advance,
Matt.
