Singing Praise

Today, my daughter, Phoebe, and I picked up our brand-spanking new copies of Hot, Hot Roti for Dada-ji and Hey, That's Not Trash from our favorite local independent bookstore, Pages (check them out at www.pagesabookstore.com  - go indie bookstores!).

Hot, Hot Roti for Dada-ji is illustrated by my talented friend and critique group partner, Ken Min. His artwork is gorgeous and is absolutely not to be missed! Check out more of Ken's artwork at www.kenminart.com.

Hey, That's Not Trash is engineered (this is a fancy way of saying my friend developed this book format which involves removable board pieces shaped like recyclable items that you can sort into build-in bins - too cool!) and written by my good friend and former Piggy Toes Press colleague, Renee Jablow. Her book is innovative and interactive and very fun! Check out more of Renee's books (she's a pop-up genius!) at www.reneejablow.com.

Get your copies today! Hooray for Ken & Renee!
