About the Author Dawn!

Why I Write

" Sit still and be quiet." 


This was a phrase Dawn heard people saying to her son with ADD repeatedly. With a rebellious desire not to crush her son's spirit and vigor, Dawn and her husband created routines to foster their boys' imaginations and burn off some of their whirlwind energy. The family's love for the outdoors and animals, and the much-needed routine for emptying pockets before they go into the laundry inspired this story.

Reason For the Series

"What's in Your Pocket from under the Tree?" is the first in the series of books written by Dawn M. Detelich and beautifully illustrated by Katie J. Williams.


Follow two adventurous brothers as they search for their lost pet, turning items collected in their pockets into a thrilling game of discovery and fun.  This book is the perfect tale to connect with any child in your life as you share unforgettable memories about what YOU used to carry in your pockets - how does it compare to what's in their pockets today?  Let the game, and the conversations begin.
