A favorite book in the Pelkey household is Little Dinos Don't Hit!

Natalie is our Senior Sales Account Manager, spends most of her time outside of work entertaining and chasing her two young children, Brooke and Owen. She loves testing our new titles with her kids, and many of the books you see on our website have been given the stamp of approval by the Garvey family.

Shannon is one of our Sales Account Managers; she joined the Sales team last year and has wowed us with her love of books.

She takes great pride in being a mom and cherishes the time she spends with her two wonderful children! Just last month, her youngest child graduated from high school, marking a significant milestone for their family. Although Holli's children are now grown up, she still holds a special place in her heart for the book If I Could Keep You Little!

Amy recently joined our team as an Accounting Associate, starting her position in May. As a dedicated mother of two, she is often busy attending her children's sporting events during the school year. In the summer months, Amy and her family love camping and spending quality time outdoors. She also has a passion for playing horseshoes! One of her favorite books is Pout-Pout Fish.

Her favorite title right now is Mindful Mr. Sloth, which shares a wonderful message even for the adults reading.

Brittany joined the team last year and has recently been promoted to Marketing Specialist!
