Contributor Bio
Jane Whittingham is a librarian from Burnaby, British Columbia, and earned her Masters of Library and Information Sciences at UBC with an emphasis on children's librarianship and literature. Much like the adventurous main characters in her fiction picture books, Wild One, A Good Day for Ducks, and Queenie Quail Can’t Keep Up, Jane loves to explore. And much like the children photographed in her nonfiction picture books Animals Move (a CLEL Bell Picture Book Award finalist) and Bear Has a Belly (a Texas 2 x 2 Reading List selection), she loves a lively story time!
