Sharron Kreider

I have been in education for forty-three years. I retired from teaching in 1994, but continued to sub until 2002 when I became the Library Aide for Clifton Grade School. I worked there for three years, eventually taking over the computer classes, too. Then, when the school district closed the Clifton building, I transferred to Nash Middle School with the fifth graders. I'm beginning my fourth year at Nash, working in the library for part of the day and teaching fifth and sixth grade computer classes, too.

Favorite authors. Ones that come to mind are Nicholas Sparks, Sandra Brown, Nora Roberts, Debbie Macomber, David Baldacci, James Patterson, and Mary Higgins Clark.

Favorite books: The Red Tent by Anita Diamant, Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen, The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson, and The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch

I recommend:

For children: Anansi and the Moss-covered Rock by Eric A Kimmel, Magic Tree House series by Mary Pope Osborne, and The View From Saturday by E.L. Konigsburg

For Young Adults: House of Dies Drear by Virginia Hamilton, HarryPotter series by J.K. Rowling

For Adults: (genre:mystery)The Empty Chair by Jeffery Deaver; (genre:romance)The Wedding by Nicholas Sparks; non-fiction-The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson

Hobbies(or what I like to do when I am not reading): I like to play FreeCell on the computer, work in the yard, and visit with friends.
