About lois
Lois Toureen
I have been writing, drawing, and imagining all my life. I especially enjoy writing for the very youngest readers, but eventually want to widen my adventures to include middle grade readers as well.I also dabble in art and photography. As time goes on, I hope to illustrate my own books and to try my hand at photo essays.Cheerio!
