Gayle Webre holds a Master’s + 30 from the University of Southwestern Louisiana (currently ULL) and has worked in elementary education for 25 years, primarily designing and implementing enrichment curricula for gifted children. She generally lives with her nose in a book or talking about books she’s read. When she’s not writing, hosting gatherings for her family and friends, or playing with her grandchildren, you can find her riding her tricycle!
Gayle’s debut picture book, When I Was an Alligator, was illustrated by Drew Beech and published by UL Press in 2020. In 2022 When I Was an Alligator represented Louisiana at the Library of Congress National Book Festival. Look for her next book, When I Was a Pelican, to be released in 2023.
