“Marilyn Slaughter is an educator with experience teaching second through fifth grades, middle school science, and social studies. She now spends time authoring children’s books, and other books for engagement, learning, and entertainment. Marilyn’s first set of six children’s books all have the theme of families enjoying the outdoors: exercising and having fun with children, teachers and classmates. The children learn about the environment, how to protect our forest, and how to plant trees. They meet and become friends with a magical and mythical being in the forest who cares for and protects the environment. Her goal is to provide a fun read with an entertaining way for children to learn about science.”
