The Nook is a place to share and celebrate nonfiction picture books of all stripes: poetry, art, biography, nature, mechanics, biology, history — the whole world is here!

I’m a California credentialed teacher, a mom, an author, and a hopeless bookworm. I love the wild, the weird, and the wacky, the sweet, the quiet, and the silly, but those books are usually front and center in the bookshop. Here I want to help you find room for rhymes, beautiful biographies, amazing art, and spectacular science!

To find out more about my own books take a look at my author site, www.RobinYardi.com, or just hang around here in my Nonfiction Nook!
