About the Author
Janet Flaugher recently published Two Bottles of Water, an engaging and zany exposé about what life in China is really like for a couple of immigrant newbies. It’s always something, from kitchens that smell of sewer gas, to surviving mystery meat stew, to underappreciated efforts at communication in Chinese. The book follows the misadventures of a pair of Americans plunked down in an alien environment they struggle to comprehend. She is also the author of several children’s books told in English and Spanish, including What If We Had a Dinosaur?, an interactive children’s fantasy story beautifully illustrated by well-known Colorado artist, Charles Luna. She and Luna are also working on a sequel to What If We Had a Dinosaur? entitled Ten Rules for Keeping a Dinosaur (And Other Pets). She has also published My Father’s Voice, a biography of William Schumacher, a remarkable Colorado educator. In 2000, she published a poetry anthology, A String of Pearls, and a family cookbook. She has traveled extensively in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Europe, and Asia, and was the superintendent of an international school in Beijing, China. She is retired and resides with her husband in Colorado, where they enjoy gardening, fishing, camping, entertaining, and spending time with their family. Her next book The Acreage will be out in March 2025. Check back with her website regularly to read more updates about new books and events and visit with the author.
