 * Delete. Person is not notable. Wrote two books, which do not appear to have received critical acclaim. She appears to support herself by teaching, where she has apparently won some awards. A fine person, I am sure, but just not particularly noteworthy or notable. Presence here seems WP:SPAM for the books. Student7 (talk) 00:58, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete strongly suspect the books in question are self-published or similar. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  01:39, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep she has had several segments on national television, she has a chapter on her in the book "More Best Practices for Middle School Classrooms: What Award-Winning Teachers Do" (google book, chapter 30), Apparently news crews have come to visit her classroom (cant find any clip, but evidence of such here), she has had an article about her in the The Star-Ledger, cant find this article online but it is quoted here on the bottom of page 16. Seems pretty notable as far as teachers go. extransit (talk) 20:17, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Comment. Note that the article describes her, not as a "noted teacher" but as a "children's author." While it is nice to have multiple talents, most people don't. She is either a "notable author" which she doesn't seem to be, or she is a "noted teacher." While teaching is noted in her article, it doesn't seem that prominent.

 * Delete One of her books is in zero US libraries, the other is in two. This is not even remotely notability  DGG ( talk ) 02:21, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
