Anika Denise is the author of several of picture books. Some of them rhyme--like the recently released BAKING DAY AT GRANDMA'S (Philomel) which follows three little bear cubs as they tromp through the woods for a day of singing, dancing and baking with their (sizable) Grandma Bear. Anika's next book, MONSTER TRUCKS (HarperChildren's 2016), features a cast of menacing monster big rigs in a race with a little blue VW bus. Doesn't that sound fun? (Here comes the braggy part...) Her books have been praised by Parents Choice, Publishers Weekly, School Library Journal, Booklist, Kirkus, Rhode Island Center for the Book, and the Bulletin for the Center for Children's Books. Also by her kids.. and her dad... and some neighbors.Anika lives in Rhode Island with her husband, talented children's book illustrator Christopher Denise, and their three daughters.
