I'm David Greenberg ( http://www.authorsillustrators.com/greenberg/greenberg.htm ), author of beautifully illustrated poetry books for children:  Slugs, Bugs!, Skunks!, Snakes!, Whatever Happened to Humpty Dumpty?, The Book of Boys for Girls-The Book of Girls for Boys, Don't Forget Your Etiquette, Crocs!, Enchanted Lions, among others, all of which have received wonderful reviews.  My novel, about the 1960s civil rights movement in America, A Tugging String, has received superb reviews, http://www.authorsillustrators.com/greenberg/review_Tugging.htm (My father was Dr. Martin Luther King's primary attorney, helped argue Brown v Board of Education, and the novel describes a child's-eye view of events.) It is winner of the Oregon Spirit Award, was a finalist for the Oregon Book Award.  I'm currently writing a poetry collection for Scholastic all about life at school. I present 1/ assemblies for all grades based on my poetry picture books and 2/ assemblies for grades three through HS based on my civil rights novel.
