Dana Sutton Shares Her Latest Children's Book: Maddie Finds Her Place. This is episode 780 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast.

Dana Sutton is a tutor, coach, and parent with decades of experience working with children (biological, adopted, and stepchildren) and young adults. She had also worked in preschool, and as a substitute teacher. She is now inspiring young minds with an empowering series of children’s books that includes You Can Do Hard Things and Maddie Finds Her Place. 

A keen athlete while growing up, she enjoyed playing fastball, ringette, volleyball, hockey, martial arts and skiing (both in water and downhill). While raising her children, she spent evenings tutoring students from primary school to first- and second year post-secondary school, as well as coaching and instructing various sports teams and athletes, including hockey, fastball, slow-pitch softball, martial arts, power skating, and ringette. 

She has owned her own business for the past decade, providing consulting, payroll and accounting services for businesses in the Okanagan, Canada. 

Sutton earned a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Calgary. Born in Ontario, and raised in Calgary, she has spent most of her adult life in Kelowna, British Columbia. 

These days, when she isn’t busy with work or grandchildren, Sutton can be found reading a book or riding her motorcycle (an Indian Scout) throughout the Okanagan, where she lives with her husband, Ray and their two Old English Sheepdogs, Guinness and Misty. Guinness, Misty and Bailey (Misty's predecessor) can be found as background characters in many of her children’s book stories.

Our focus today is Dana’s book Maddie Finds Her Place.
