Inspiring Kids to Pursue their Dreams
Hi, I’m Brittany!
I am the author of Fly, a Golden Kite Award-winning picture book, Forever and Always, and the middle-grade detective series, Opal Watson: Private Eye. I was born in Louisville, Kentucky, and my books were selected to represent the fly children of Kentucky (thanks, Library of Congress!). I studied theater in London, England, and Dramatic Writing at Carnegie Mellon University, before working in youth education at art museums and public libraries. When I’m not writing, you’ll find me discovering the magic of musicals, learning embroidery, tackling home renovation projects, and holding tight to my elders and childhood home.
COMING SOON!
SEPTEMBER 1, 2026
Perfect for Christmas, this is the fun and educational third book in the Quentin and Alfie's ABC Adventures series—inspired by the #1 bestselling children's podcast from award-winning audio streaming service, Pinna.
Preschooler Alfie is ready for the most wonderful time of year, full of festive decorations, joyful caroling, and the sweet smell of gingerbread. But he still has one more thing to do before Christmas day, and he wonders if he will make it in time . . . He hasn’t given his letter to Santa! Will his awesome babysitter Quentin be able to help Alfie with his delivery?
Join Quentin and Alfie as they stroll through the neighborhood decked out in holiday spirit and discover all the amazing things about the word Christmas—from C is for Cookies to S is for Santa Claus—that really make this time of year extra special!
Following A Is for Alfie and E Is for Easter Egg Hunt, C Is for Christmas is the third installment in a four-book series, based on the bestselling podcast of the same name and created in partnership with Pinna, a multi-award-winning audio streaming service for kids. Readers can look forward to the final holiday-themed book in this quartet, H is for Halloween, in Spring/Summer 2027.
