Depute Paws is an adorable dog with an important message. Deputy Paws was born in a mill under filthy conditions, kept in a cage where shots cost too much, food and water were scarce, and there was no grass to run on. But…he was adopted after being rescued by National Mill Dog Rescue! Now, he enjoys all the things all dogs should have.

This is the pumpkin-head costume my kids wore when they were little that inspired the one Sammy wears in the picture book HALLOWEEN RIDE, but it doesn‘t actually fit Sammy, though. That‘s why he got a new costume that matches the one he wears in the story. 🎃

Sammy gives Franky the stamp of approval. He enjoyed the details about what different birds eat. He also loves anything with a bow tie! 😍 A cute, rhyming book about a hungry flamingo who is a finicky eater. 4 Stars.

The first thing I noticed were the large, full-page illustrations with colors, shading, and texture that bring Egypt to life.

The prose is written in a way that is poetic, thoughtful, and can further entice a reader‘s imagination.

An enjoyable story that tickles your funny bone. With a humorous storyline, this story teaches children how fear can crop up from anything or anywhere and that fear is not a bad thing.

Reading about what life was like in the orphanage is heartbreaking. For kids, especially for many kids in America, it'll show them that they have things and privileges that other kids around the world don't have--a full plate of food and clean drinking water.

The draft to the original story for Pea Soup Disaster. I wrote this about 20 years ago! Back then, it was simply called Gregory Green.

This one is stained because I used to set it out during the holidays, but it‘s still beautiful.

And this is the real Sammy from Pea Soup Disaster. He gets into mischief. Stay tuned for photo evidence of his many adventures. 😉

This is Sammy, Gregory Green‘s best friend. He‘s not your ordinary teddy bear. He comes to life, is silly but also wise, loves cookies, and has adventures with Gregory every day. And yes, he wears a green tie. 💚

I wrote this children‘s book when my kids were children. I finally published it, and two of my three grandsons are in the photo/illustrations. Today was my youngest grandson‘s 2nd birthday. I saw this little section of the river by the park and thought of the pond where Slow Poke and his family live.🐢 💚 🐢
