"I wanted to write a children's book after my second child was born but didn't have a clue what to write about. In 2005 my brother died tragically. Shortly after his death I discovered he loved dragonflies. The next year when Spring came there were literally hundreds of dragonflies flying around our house all the time. I told my son who was 4 at the time to hold out his arm and be patient and a dragonfly might land. That's how "I Spy a Dragonfly" was born." - cARLA bURKE
