Long, Jan

Growing up in New Mexico provided a fascination for hummingbirds, as they migrate from South America. As a kid, Jan Long was also fascinated by maps and geography. "Azule and the White Hummingbird" incorporates both of these loves into a children s picture book series that teaches about hummingbird facts, behavior, protection, and geography. Jan Long has also published a non-fiction guide on caregiving and planning, Dying the Right Way: A System of Caregiving and Planning for Families, following a career in health care.
