The Story Behind the Book: Dee and Deb Off They Go Kindergarten First Day Jitters

I'm pleased to re-introduce the story behind the book... Dee and Deb Off They Go Kindergarten First Day Jitters and their delightful video as to where they have been.

The inspiration is a tribute to my endearing bond with my fraternal twin sister, Deb. The story is a true account as to how we were separated for the first time in kindergarten. For back then, pre-school was not a class type that was available. I cannot imagine navigating these past 55 plus years without Deb and our bond continues whether the adventures are together or apartment. Love you immensely, Deb!
