Cynthia MacGregor Editor & Author

Cynthia MacGregor has 46 published books to her credit and still more scheduled for forthcoming publication. Though she writes on many subjects, the preponderance of her books have been for either parents or kids. Unafraid to tackle tough subjects, she's helped kids deal with parental divorce in The Divorce Helpbook for Kids and its forthcoming follow-up, The Divorce Helpbook for Teens. She's helped parents tackle the bedtime issue with Night-Night, the follow-up to which was The Naptime Book. Her Abduction Prevention series of six books helps keep kids safe, while her 'lap books' for little ones deal with such difficult issues for kids as Why Do We Have to Move?, Why Do People Die?, and Why Do We Need Another Baby? In 2005, she will have a book published on stepfamilies (working title: Jigsaw Puzzle Family). Parents interested in developing their kids' creativity were quick to buy Cynthia's Raising a Creative Child, and her activity books include 365 After-School Activities as well as many others. What Do You Know About Manners? takes a humorous approach in 'civilizing' kids, while Thanks, Aunt Zelda teaches them how to write thank-you notes. And these are only some of Cynthia's books! An accomplished public speaker, who also gives public speaking classes for adults, Cynthia teaches creative writing courses to adults in addition. She also gets the word out about her books via her weekly EZine, EZine Does It, an eclectic mix of features in which there's always news about her most recently published or most timely or seasonally appropriate books.Cynthia MacGregor has 46 published books to her credit and still more scheduled for forthcoming publication.
