Summer Time!

School days are finishing.

Summertime is coming soon. 

It's time for fishing and swimming and eating bugs. 

(If you're frog, that is.) 

It can also be a time to be creative. 

Write a story about your own adventures.

It won't be graded or marked with a red pen. 

You can make it as exciting or imaginative as you please. 

I'd love to hear from my Polliwog Kids this summer.

FOR PARENTS - 

For some good writing ideas for your children,

go to Eight Real-Life Ways to Get Kids Writing.

Zeke's Peddler Wagon is Coming!

Zeke the Peddler is rattling down the road. He'll be stopping at blogs every few days throughout the coming weeks. His wagon is full of information about the novel A Home for Phoebe and me (the author).

At the end of the month, I will draw a name from all those who comment on the participating blog posts - also anyone who comments on my Facebook Author Page. Let your friends know that Zeke the Peddler is coming your way!

His first stop in at Patty Wysong's PATTERINGS

I'm excited! Aren't you?

You never know what Zeke might have in his wagon for you!

Learning Without Knowing It

What could be more fun than learning about blacksmiths and bees, wagons and wool, or fishing and ferns while following the adventures of an Indian and an orphan during the 1800's?

Kids won't even know they are doing school while they read about the adventures of Maseppa and Phoebe.

A Home for Phoebe is now available at

Amazon

or

Full Sail Books

(ebook or paperback)
