1. flamingo flies north?




Yesterday the family and I went to the launch party for my friend author/illustrator Sheila Jarkins new book Marco Flamingo. The kids had so much fun. Above is one of the fuzzy little birds that made their way home with us.





One activity that I thought was particularly clever was the "Flamingos on Ice". Sheila had frozen dozens of flamingos in an ice block and the kids poured hot water over the block to free the birds. Bookmarks, pink shaving cream, lots of tasty goodies, display of original art and live music, all made for a great event. The turnout was impressive. The afternoon culminated in Sheila reading to the kiddies. I can't wait till Marco's next adventure.
