Cindy Bauer Books

V.K. (Katie) Sansone is the author of 12 published works, most of which were written for children. A native of Ashland, Kentucky, she now resides in Des Moines with her husband, John, and their pets. They have two daughters and six grandchildren.

With a passion for storytelling and a very creative imagination, her children's books are truly a delight for readers ages 7-10, or to be read to children ages 3-6. There's also a book just for tweens ages 11-12 as well.

For the adults, she has two non-fiction works, one of which is a wonderful memoir filled with stories, poems, letters and a look into the author's personal life; the other, a very vivid recollection of a dream.

Her books are available online at her publisher's website, Lulu.com, Amazon.com and other retail outlets.
