Did You Know...

Thought of the Day
Where are the positive aspects of life? I'll tell you where they are at! They are all around you. Just open your eyes and unplug your ears. Filter out the pessimistic 'doom and gloom' that surrounds us each day. Enjoy the love and positive wonders that we so often overlook each day.
What am I doing at this very moment? I am sitting by my window looking at the evening sky on a light blue background interspersed with dark purple clouds highlighted by the rays of the sun. I look forward to tomorrow to the wonders that will unfold for me.
Will there be a pessimistic naysayer that tries to put my thoughts down... of course, but it won't matter. I am strong in my beliefs and know that my optimism is what leads to good and wonderful things... life is a choice! I just chose to see it through my lens.

The Ghost of Lizard's Rock

Writing The Ghost Of Lizard's Rock Shona Anderson and I   first began writing in 2011 a new book series called the ‘ Cow Pie Gang ’.  As  leaders in education & bully prevention in our home countries of the United States and Canada, we recognized the need for books written for tweens (ages 11-14) and the issues confronting them in the 21 st  century  such as growing up, developing friendships, bullying, death, divorce, and so much more. Four books later, the ‘ Cow Pie Gang’  series has been adopted for use in thousands of classrooms in the United States, Canada, and five other countries. This is the series parents want their children to read or hear.

THE BOOK OF KATI - VOLUME 4 - FORGOTTEN

FORGOTTEN   Over six years ago Kati's father disappeared from her family's life and then he suddenly shows up with a surprise of his own. How will Kati and her brother react? As if things weren't more complicated, Oliver may have found his first girlfriend. 5.0 out of 5 stars   Quick entertaining read Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2018 This 4th book in the Kati series didn’t disappoint. The characters are believable and true to life. I really like the way the gang comes together to solve issues for everyone. This book is a great example of the adage “it takes a village”. The issues of bullying, abandonment and single parenting are realistically portrayed in a way that make sense for middle schoolers. Anxiously awaiting the next book. I love these characters

THE BOOK OF KATI - VOLUME 1 - CHANGES

Who said turning 13 was easy? You try to create  your new look, new clothes, and then you glance in the mirror - ugh! Nothing looks right! Your arms are too long, hair too bland, and no ‘pop’ to your eyes. How can the first day of seventh grade be so complicated yet, so exciting? Will you meet new friends? Will your old friends still like you? Is this the year you have your first boyfriend? What will he look like? So many questions! CHANGES has been adopted by thousands of 5th grade teachers in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom, and more. Teachers are using the book series as a highly engaging read-aloud book in their classrooms, reading groups, and individually. "I personally recommend Changes to every 5th grade teacher and students ages 11-14.  Reviews by Students: "It's funny." "I loved it." "The best thing I've ever heard." "Wonderful book." "You are great writers." "Oliver...
