About

I’ve been a magazine editor, communications manager and feature magazine writer for over 20 years--learning and writing about  everything from celebrity chefs and pharmaceutical products to resorts, homing pigeons and pot-bellied pigs. About three years ago, my love of words merged with my desire to see a little fun in everything-- resulting in a series of juvenile fiction books known as: The Adventures of the Poodle Posse.

I now spend much of my time penning dog tales and even more inspiring---in elementary school classrooms,encouraging children to pick up a pen and tell their own stories.   Member Society of Children’s Book Writers & Illustrators (SCBWI), the Keystone State Reading Association (KSRA), Independent Book Publisher's Association (IBPA)

Story Behind The Book

I was a magazine writer till watching my very funny posse of poodles. For the past three years, I've been telling dog tales that tickle my funny bone. This book, with two tales (The Princess & the Frenchmen/No Dogs Allowed!) takes place in the garden and at the shore, where ordinary life events turn life with furry friends, upside down and lots of fun.

<p>'My class loved listening to the stories read to them by me and the school librarian. It fit so well when teaching little ones to write their own stories.Writers think about their own lives; something simple like having pets can generate ideas to write about. Can't wait to read these new adventures to my students.'  Mary Smith, First Grade Teacher, Colonial School District, PA<br /><br />'Chrysa Smith has a way with words and poodles---she has created three lovable dog personalities with top dog Woody, poodle princess Daisy and adventurous Archie....in adventures that young readers in grades two and three can enjoy'  Leslie Clark, Children's Librarian, Ocean City, NJ<br /><br /><br /></p>
