1. books4yourkids.com is now on Instagram!



I'm trying something new this year - Instagram. I've only had a smartphone for a year now and it has taken me that long to get a feel for Instagram and decide why it is a platform of social media that I should even bother with. When the app that I had been using to record things that I am grateful for everyday crashed, I decided that this was a good time to start expressing my gratitude to the people and world around me actively, rather than tallying it on my phone. 

But, I found I missed the daily diary routine of the gratitude app and decided to try using Instagram as a daily diary featuring a book I was reading. Here is where you will find glimpses of - and often brief thoughts on - one of the many books that I have my hands on every day. These will not always be books that I review on my blog, or these might be books that I will be reviewing down the road, so I hope that you will visit for something a little bit new and different! Also, I am trying to flex my artistic muscle and I hope to post a drawing every Saturday. . .

You can find me by clicking the link above, clicking the Instagram badge on my blog (scroll to the bottom of the page) or by looking for me @books4yourkids.

And, as always, thanks for reading 
on any platform!

3. Roast me? Roast my book???

So, on Tuesday (which is the BIG DAY)  I’ll be online all day at Book Roast, chatting with folks and making a general fool of myself (no surprise there I guess).  And I would beg you stop by for a number of reasons.

1. I’m scared nobody will come, and I’ll look silly.
2. I’m nervous about the book  and could use your love, generally.
3. Book Roast is awesome fun and you should check it out.
4. You could win a free book.
5. It benefits Reach Out and Read!!!

Pretty please, won’t you stop by, and maybe even help me spread the word?
