About the Author

Rhythm Prism's catalogue is constantly growing. The most recent additions are geared toward a general readership. These newer books do not eclipse our earlier issues. These encompass adult/youth writing development and education for school-age youth.

All of Rhythm Prism's books are guided by a few basic principles: learning is a lifelong process; complex material can be explained in simple terms; pictures always enhance text; responsible research is essential to every work of nonfiction. There's a final, over-arching principle: don't bore the reader.

A wide range of subjects is covered. This ambitious scope is a reflection of our writer's perspective. A. G. Moore has been a teacher, a student, a researcher and an author. Each of these skills is evident in the books she produces.
