a happy Jenny Sue!

April 2, 2009

mte_patch1 A little fun-n-surprising news! My Travelin’ Eye is on the CCBC Choices list — the Cooperative Children’s Book Center annual best-of-the-year list! Check out the many other great books on their list, including my friend Betsy Snyder’s Haiku Baby. Also, Sherry Artemenko, a speech language pathologist at playonwords.com, wrote a really nice review of MTE. She is a kindred spirit who also had a travelin’ eye! Check out her entire site. It’s super resourceful for parents and teachers in a lot of inspiring ways.

Makes me so happy that My Travelin’ Eye is continuing to receive such positive attention. Thank you Sherry and CCBC!

Lola and i totally agree with all this good stuff about your book! We can’t wait for the next one! OH! She is a little afraid of doctors now since she has had some experience with them…So her favorite thing is to go thru your book with me and point out the “Doctoo” on the pages. I am trying to convince her that Doctoo’s are good but she’s not so sure…. She is now almost 20 months old…my goodness time flies!

Jenny, thanks for the shout-out. You are sweet. I am so happy we both “made” the list…and we didn’t even know about “the list.”

Oh, and I also meant to say, thanks for the verbal confirmation of “my friend Betsy Snyder…” since Jeff always teases me that you are my imaginary, made-up friend. That was too perfect! Now I have proof.
