Author Sue Agauas is passionate about the power of love and family. She loves how books can transport a reader to places near or far, real or imaginary. For thirty-nine years, Sue enjoyed teaching elementary children. Having a strong love for learning and discovery, she endeavors to share these passions with children of all ages through her books.
With a deep love of nature and animals, Sue feels that stories revolving around emotions, especially joy, have a large impact. She finds her greatest joy when she is spending time with her family, traveling with her husband, writing, and riding her overly clever but very lovable horse.
Sue has published two Middle Grade / Young Adult (YA) books called Grandma’s Sock Drawer and Sukey’s Unfinished Mission. They are fantasy fiction and celebrate the adventure of life an the power of love. Learn more about Sue’s books here:
