We all know that feeling of excitement when we step off that bus on the last day of school and then the feeling of excitement when school starts again.

The author of the Miss Maddie Mae Book series, Jackie Sowatsky, lives in Lititz, Pennsylvania, with her husband, two golden retrievers, and one Siamese cat.view less
