Diane Page started her career in education in the late '6-s as an elementary school teacher, assistant principal and principal. She later piloted a pre-kindergarten program with the Tupelo Public School District and was on faculty with the University of Mississippi. Her debut publication, "The Paraeducator in the Elementary School Classroom," was the first work of its kind written especially for assistant teachers. For nine years, before retiring in 2010, she served as the education coordinator at the Lee County Juvenile Center. Page's first children's book "Bobbs and the Little Boy," sends a resoundingly clear message of normalcy to all children who fear such things as clowns, scary animals and thunderstorms. The Little Boy ever so lovingly explains as children grow and mature, these fears, for the most part, will go away, especially with the friendship of a small, stuffed creature. Page is also the author of "Bobbs and the Little Boy Meet Agnes," "Roy and Roo Take a Trip to the Zoo" and "Mr. Zidderdeedee." All four books are masterfully illustrated by Bruce Bigelow. Page is the proud parent of two grown children, Elizabeth and Leighton, and grandmother of Alston, Avery and Eliza Tyer and Zachary and Natalie Page, whom she calls the most amazing blessing of her life.
