Martha Steward lives in Northern California on the family farm. The animals great and small are adopted. Inspired to write a series for families on pet adoption, blended family issues, and the courage to be a Marine Mum. Martha's two books, Darby's Story and Bangle Bear inspire pet adoption through the pages. Both are MCA Silver recipients for Best Books in Pet and Animal Care. Each book goes through the process of finding the pet best suitable for your family. The benefit to spay and neuter your beloved pets. Each animal sets an example of blended family issues, the different personalities and their likes and dislikes. The stories are warm and funny, families will laugh at the conversation the pet have and the outrageous ways Bear teaches her human pets. On a special note these books help children with families members serving our country and the concerns for deployment. A warm and humorous stories for families to read together.

The second passion is supporting literacy groups for children and adults. “March 2012 Read Across America” My goal to discover positive websites, articles to help parents and their children; reading is a joy.. books provide an adventure to go and be different persons.  I know there are children who need encouragement ... they too can over come their challenges and find the pleasure to read and write.
