Donna LeBlancAs a child, Donna LeBlanc always had dreamed of becoming a teacher. And as a piano instructor for the past two decades, she has achieved her dream. She also studied music and musical theatre, became a wife, worked in corporate America, served as a metor and as a children's choir director, and created her own business in faux finishing and interior decorating. In 2009, Donna began writing children's poetry. When she is not inspiring her students and finding new destinations for Commander Josh, Donna is managing her decorating business, and volunteering her time for Habitat for Humanity and with "Book Friends" of the beautiful Beekley Library in New Hartford, Connecticut. Her first Commander Josh book, Commander Josh Book One: "In Space" has won two Purple Dragonfly awards: First Place in the "Picture Books 6 & Older" category and an Honorable Mention in the "Picture Books 5 & Younger" category. Commander Josh Book One: "In Space" also has earned the prestigious "Story Monster Approved" seal from Five Star Publications, Inc. Donna currently resides in New Hartford with her husband, her brother, and two dog daughters, Sophie and Rosa. Donna says, "It's so much fun to dream! I hope to inspire others to do the same. You just never know when your dreams may come true!" Read More Read Less
