Get Ready to Read!
My name is Destiny Lavigne or Mrs. Lavigne and I'm a teacher and author. My book, "Teddy Bears Can't Be Monsters" is available now! I do classroom visits as well as lesson plans to help young learners get excited about reading. Come back for more books by me that will be sure to make your kids laugh, cry, or get motivated. Reading is fun so come along with me and let's get started!
Why My Books?
Many books out now lack the kind of diversity and realism that children need to stay grounded and build self-esteem. Of course monsters are fantasy, but fear is a very real concern for small children. Books like mine teach children that the world around them is a wonderful place to explore and feel all the feelings that come along the way.

What's It About?
What does a monster do if he hates being a monster? Well anything can happen when a little girl falls asleep for the night. With claws, sharp teeth, and no-so-soft fur, he hopes to get lots of cuddles like her favorite toy. But will he succeed at being the cutest, cuddliest monster-teddy bear the world has ever seen or is it true that monsters can’t be teddy bears!
