Ocean Soup Tide Pool Poems

Steve Swinburne is the author of over 25 children's books, mostly nonfiction. He's had many jobs in his life: newspaper delivery boy, dishwasher, busboy, waiter, pizza maker, truck driver, drummer in a rock band, naturalist, park ranger, boat captain, office worker. He's quite happy now (thank you very much) writing children's books and will keep that job.

He took a break from writing about manatees, wolves and black bears to write his first novel, Wiff & Dirty George. Steve is very excited about this novel and very excited, too, about his new book of poetry, Ocean Soup - Tide Pool Poems.

Steve lives with his wife, Heather, in South Londonderry, Vermont, about 200 miles from the nearest ocean.
