Patricia Baker’s educator experience spans thirty-eight years of teaching from pre-school to graduate school, having taught Gifted Education for twenty-six years in Virginia. She was raised in Red Bank, New Jersey, and taught in New Jersey for a few years before teaching with the Department of Defense Dependents Schools in Keflavik, Iceland, Misawa, Japan, Kadena, Okinawa, and Naples, Italy. Mrs. Baker is also a local elected school board member and has been for seven years, currently serving her second term as chairman of the board. Patricia and her husband Larry are parents of two adult married daughters, Katie and Molly, and grandparents to six grandchildren.

“‘A Simple Star’ allows young children to be curious, filled with wonder, build their confidence, learn to get along, and believe in themselves,” writes Baker. “‘A Simple Star’ expresses the importance of being kind to all, listening closely, and understanding the magic lives in each of them. Each child can make a difference in today’s complicated world, a world that needs the innocence of children with ‘A Simple Star.’”

With bright and vibrant artwork to help bring Baker’s story to life, “A Simple Star” will help parents and guardians connect with readers of all ages to encourage confidence and believing in oneself, and to never hide one’s special light that makes them unique.
