Childrens, Fantasy, Historical
Doré Ripley loves writing fantasy and history through fiction featuring characters who come alive in worlds long past and looks forward to making connections with new readers. Writing nonfiction has given her the background to make those worlds come alive. As a professor, she wrote for a wide audience in popular magazines, scholarly journals, and textbooks.
She also writes under the nom de plume Yellow Duck Press and produces children's picture books, comic picture books, and leveled readers that are whimsical, fun, and educational. The "Kitty Cat Cousins" series offers children a charming set of books starring their favorite felines who have some of the same dreams and problems experienced by young readers.
As an award-winning author and educator with over 15 years of teaching experience, Ripley strives to create fun (and educational) books for kids at Yellow Duck Press.
