Being an educator has transformed author Portia McGowan Green into an avid writer. Laced with her wide imagination and fueled by the determination to reach and teach, she offers another exciting read for the little ones. "Jasmine and the Old Oak Tree" (published by Xlibris) is Green's latest story about an inquisitive child who wants to know more about the inhabitants of the tree in her great aunt's yard.

Inspired by the curious nature of her great niece, Jasmine, the author decided to write a story that will educate other inquisitive young minds out there.
