Hi Linda,

Last month I appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show regarding the book I wrote and self-published. Oprah discusses the importance of teaching children to tell someone if they are being abused. Tell a parent, tell a teacher, tell a police officer.

Please share the clip with colleagues, friends, and anyone who cares about
children. Help us spread the word!

Hi Linda,
I am new to jacketflap and a newly published author/illustrator. "Willy Goes to the Farm" is a story about a worm who wants to live on Old MacDoanld's farm but doesn't make a sound. When Old MacDonald decides to open up his farm, not only to animals that make a sound, but any animal that has a special talent, animals from far and wide show up wanting to reveal their own special talents and live on the farm. Willy the Worm decides to go to Old Mac’s farm to cheer on his cousin, the snake. Everyone knows that a worm certainly can’t make any sounds. Why, Willy can’t even think of one thing he can do! How will he ever be allowed to stay?
With the help of Mrs. Mac and the other animals on the farm, Willy discovers that he does have a special talent after all! Please visit my website! www.willysgotcharacter.webs.com I would appreciate any feedback.
I look forward to hearing from you!

As a librarian, I thought you might want to know about the debut (last Monday) of The Picnic Basket, a blog where library and school professionals taste new and forthcoming children's books with first-come, first-serve sample copies of books for kids of all ages. We send free books. You tell us what you think: look to see what’s in the weekly feast, request the books that you want to taste, read the books, and then post reviews on The Picnic Basket for your colleagues to read.


It’s a blog full of all you can read (and write) about children’s literature and I hope will become an additional resource for librarians. So far, the feedback’s been overwhelmingly positive. I hope you’ll take a peek and partake in the picnic.

Thanks,
Deborah Sloan
