Jeanne Prevost grew up in the city of Fall River Massachusetts with one younger brother and six younger sisters. She is the mother of three grown children. Jeanne writes picture books for children ages four to twelve and teaches third grade.

Jeanne Prevost’s most recently published picture book, It’s Raining Pups and Dogs!, features heart-wrenching illustrations by Amelia Hansen. It presents a young girl, Lauren, who learns why it’s important to have her dog Scout spayed.

Previously, Jeanne wrote the first book ever for children that addresses the topic of pet overpopulation. Wonderfully illustrated by Amelia Hansen, It's Raining Cats -- and Cats! takes a humorous approach to the problem. The ASPCA chose It’s Raining Cats...and Cats! as the winner of the HENRY BERGH CHILDREN'S BOOK AWARD in 2009.

The river speaks in Jeanne’s book entitled Quequechan: Forgotten River. This title gives voice to a river that wants to be loved.

Jeanne is represented by Hummingbird Literary Agency as of July 2013.

For the past year, Jeanne has been putting in writing another mother’s journey through the trials of raising a son with a mental disorder. This yet-to-be-published memoir offers a gripping account of a mother who doesn’t know where to turn, until she turns to herself.

Jeanne lives in an old neighborhood, in an old house surrounded by trees and flowers. She loves gardening, hiking and backpacking, swimming, boating, and bicycle riding. Her motto is: Give more than you take; do more than you need to; be kinder than you have to.
