Biography
Hi. My name is Denise Fleming. I love to write and draw children's books. I'm also very fond of cats!
Denise Fleming has published numerous picture books, including Time to Sleep and the Caldecott Honor Book In the Small Pond. Ms. Fleming creates the illustrations for her books by pouring colored cotton pulp through hand-cut stencils. The result--images set in hand-made paper.
Ms. Fleming lives in Toledo, Ohio, with Gigi (Mama Cat) and Samson (Papa Cat); their kittens, Hissy, Sparky, Callie, and Mr. Darcy; Isabelle (who was there before all the others); and one dog, Warfy, who deserves a special mention because she has to live with seven cats. Ms. Fleming also has a husband and daughter.
