Taylor's stories all take place in Michigan. She is an adventure-seeking naturalist, story teller, and artist who uses her work to educate readers on the environment and the great outdoors. All of Taylor’s page-turning mystery books in the “Holly Wild” series take the reader across Michigan while highlighting the state’s many unique and wonderful destinations.

Taylor will read from her newest picture book in the series, "The Young Geek's Guide to Getting Outside! An Alphabet Adventure." This will be followed by a puppet show that will take listeners on an imaginary forest hike. The “Holly Wild” series will be available for purchase on her website and at the Earth Day event. Taylor will also be doing a book signing.

Taylor's pet snake, Kenny, will accompany her.
