Bio
Loretta developed a passion for children’s books while working as a storyteller, bookseller and reviewer at a children's bookstore in Toronto. In this rich world of words, Loretta was thrilled to be putting the best books into the hands of tomorrow’s big readers. Loretta has also been an actor and voice animation performer for over 35 years.
She has worked on CBC radio dramas and many cartoons, including the voice of Valerie in the ongoing ‘Max and Ruby’ series.

Loretta was a finalist in CANSCAIP’s 2015 Writing for Children competition in the picture book category.
