I was told once by a wise lady that you should do what makes your heart sing, and for me that's writing. After gaining my diploma of professional children's writing in 2000, I had the confidence and time to explore my writing passion. Now, I write picture books, chapter books, poetry and short stories. Birthday Balloon is my sixth published picture book and one that is close to my heart. I hope you enjoy reading this special story to little loved ones. Excerpts from all my books can be viewed on www.diannellisbooks.com.
