“There’s a Monster at the End of this Book” by Jon Stone
I grew up in Apple Valley, and chose to move back here after my girls were born so that they could grow up in this same area. They both grew up attending New Horizon Academy and are now teachers themselves. I enjoy happy hours with friends, finding new restaurants, movies, camping, and spending time with family.

“I Love You Like No Otter ” by Rose Rossner
Our son has been attending this center for roughly 3 years. We have experienced each of their classroom settings all the way from infants to preschool. The responsiveness of not only the teachers, but the management staff is top notch. We have seen how the experiences they foster for our son has invigorated his passion for learning and experiencing new things. There has not been a single day that I have worried about the level of care and education my son would receive here. It is truly a special place for not only my son, but for my wife and I as well.
