It's a Spoopy Halloween when Oliver attends a costume party with his family at Pythian Castle. It's a fun time, but things get a little more Spoopy when Oliver goes down the stairs to the dungeon instead of up the stairs to the theatre. 

Join Oliver for the adventure.

ON THE NIGHT YOU WERE BORN by Nancy Tillman with [Video] Reading

A few words about this wonderful bedtime story...

Published in 2006, On the Night You Were Born by Nancy Tillman wasn't available for my boys. We read Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown and Pat Hancock at least a thousand times and I will always have precious memories attached to the story as well as to our bedtime ritual.

But times change and authors give birth to new stories everyday and every now and again a simply genius piece of art comes to life. On the Night You Were Born is a beautiful bedtime story that fosters a sense of joy that is unmatched.
Nancy Tillman

The gorgeous rhythm identifies for the child their unique existence in the world. ..."Life will never be the same. Because there had never been anyone like you...ever in the world." What a fabulous message to share with a child.


Lacy Grace on the night she was born!
Every child deserves to be special and this book is about the best beginning I could imagine. "Heaven blew every trumpet and played every horn on the wonderful, marvelous night you were born."

WEE THREE; A Mother’s Love in Verse by Marta Moran Bishop





This is a beautiful book of delightful rhythmic poetry and prose. It is a fabulous choice for a special child, but I promise the adults will love the stroll down memory lane. A precious gem of words compiled through generations of the author’s family. The love and care permeates throughout the pages.

WEE THREE is a celebration of childhood as seen through eyes we all once shared. I am particularly fond of MOTHER’S FLOWER GARDEN, CINDERELLA MOTHER, and SNOW MAGIC. The illustrations are fabulous works of sweet art. This book is definitely keepsake quality.

Bravo, to Marta Moran Bishop, I love this book!

Leah The Ant by Cindy Nemitz; A Children's Book About Epilepsy




Leah is a darling little ant preparing for graduation at the Ant Academy. Each ant in Anthillville is assigned a career at the graduation ceremony. This day is especially important to Leah, because she has drop and shake disorder or as we humans refer to it, epilepsy. Readers can joyfully learn and follow the delightful Leah as she anxiously awaits for her assignment.

I commend the author for writing this much needed story about a difficult subject. Cindy Nemitz has uncomplicated epilepsy through Leah. It is a very well written and illustrated book with an invaluable lesson about epilepsy, a disorder which will effect 1 in 23 people in their lifetime. As a mother of a 22 year old lifelong epileptic, I highly recommend this book as an educational tool for those with or without the often misunderstood disorder.  

Please, support epilepsy research and awareness!
