Barbara Renner started writing children's picture books when she retired from teaching. Inspired by nature, she has published nine books that revolve around wildlife main characters, which include animal sounds and facts. Being an avid dog lover, she published a coffee table gift book filled with photos and feel-good messages as seen through the eyes of her yellow lab rescue, Larry.Barbara started a new picture book series that are heartfelt stories about grandpas, nanas, and their grandchildren. These books combine surprises, playfulness, and memories that every grandparent strives to give to their grands.When not grappling with the computer, Barbara is outside soaking in the sun's energy; and there's a lot of sun in Arizona where she and her family have lived for over 45 years. Barbara loves to walk, hike, swim, dance, work in her garden, and occasionally attempt to play golf. Travel is another passion of Barbara's. Her children are her traveling companions, and they've explored many countries together, marveling at new scenery, learning new customs, and sampling good food and wine. See less
