Betty White has had a fascination with words since she was a child, from the lullabies of babyhood, through the nursery rhymes and Dick and Jane stories of elementary school. She always loved sharing enchanting stories and poetry, and she brought that love into the classroom when, after finishing high school and teacher training, Betty spent four years teaching first graders in the very same school and classroom she had started school in fourteen years earlier. Her four children were brought up having fun with words, too, and when Betty returned to school, it was as a librarian. What fun she had sharing stories and wordplay with little children with high enthusiasm and big imaginations! Betty now lives in Wisconsin with her family, and spends time creating word games and writing stories that encourage children to laugh, dream, discover new places, solve problems, and appreciate the world around them.
