About the author of The Mice Who Came to Story Time and The Mice Who Went to the Gym: After more than 25 years of reading to her students, Claire Sinclair, mom, Kindergarten teacher, and lover of children’s books, decided to finally write one of her own! The Mice Who Came to Story Time is loosely based on the mice who would occasionally appear in her classroom. This is the very same classroom where Claire herself attended Kindergarten as a child. The room where mice have been making appearances long before she was ever there!
