Once again, a heartfelt thanks to Diana and Amy at Charles Beatley Jr. Central Library, who welcomed me with open arms for yet another great story time on Saturday, May 19. Our reading of Centipede Dragon A Benevolent Creature versus the Rascally ReptilLion was attended by a HUGE group of kids and their families. This was an energetic, warm audience and I’m grateful to be able to support and be a part of these programs.
And what’s more, I tested out a new game! Instead of creating a single object from pieces of Centipede Dragon scale, I attempted to draw a half-this, half-that creature in one minute's time. I naively thought this was plenty of time, and planned to reduce it with each successive round. The reality was that I easily blew right through that minute each round!
The game ended with a surprise, but the beauty of making up a game is that you can also bend the rules as needed. I cannot wait to play this game again, with more strange and wonderful creatures added to the mix.
Congratulations to the winners of the raffle as well! Keep reading and adding to the 1,000-books before kindergarten goal.
AND a reminder to ALL on the mailing list that unsubscribing is EASY; the last thing I want to do is clutter people's boxes, so if you'd prefer to occasionally read along this children's book publishing journey of mine, you can always visit the website on your own!
Hope to see you again next time.
