Books By Katy Main - Author

Author and illustrator Katy Main was a preschool teacher in Alaska for twenty-five years. She was a member of the National Association for the Education of the Young Child and the American Montessori Society. She earned a bachelor of fine arts in illustration from the University of Alaska Anchorage. BABY ANIMALS OF THE NORTH grew out of Main's love for art, children, and the forty-ninth state. She researched the book for five years and eventually filled twenty-two notebooks with information about Alaska's flora and fauna. It was her hope that the book would stimulate in early readers a sense of wonder and appreciation of the animal families with whom we share the earth.
