About the Author

M. Dalton King is a Brooklyn-born New Yorker who has been publishing books, off and on, since the '90s. The first book she published was a tea book called SpecialTeas that was then followed by a much smaller, miniature book titled Tea Time. That little book graced the counters of gift shops just about everywhere for nearly a decade. Along the way, she wrote two other cookbooks and then, two books with doll themes. The first was a 'how to' on making miniature doll shoes and the second was on the art of miniature millinery. Both books were collaborations with Timothy J. Alberts and Pat Henry. And now, a new venture, the Hippo book. It's M. Dalton King's first effort at publishing a children's book and if all goes well, it will be the first in the What If... series.
