June Sobel

June Sobel loves picture books for the way they awaken the wonder of words in children and keep the child alive in adults. After a career as an illustrator and graphic designer, June wrote her first book B IS FOR BULLDOZER when she couldn’t find an ABC book on construction for her bulldozer obsessed three year old. Her rollicking SHIVER ME LETTERS – A Pirate ABC and the soothing bedtime verse of the best-selling THE GOODNIGHT TRAIN are story time and bedtime favorites.The adventures of the beloved train continues to grow to become a series of five books. TOW TRUCK JOE is the first in a collection of picture books about a helpful, problem solving tow truck. In 2024, FIRST DAY! HOORAY! will help young children navigate the first day of school. She has also co-authored APPLES, APPLES with Barbara Bietz, in which apples join the joy of Jewish holiday celebrations. June lives in Westlake Village, California.
