...and His Amazing Collections" by my very talented friend Brooke Bessesen and illustrated by Jenny Campbell:



This book achieves the near impossible by getting Superbaby to sit quietly for long periods of time! We both love the humorous rhyming text and Superbaby likes when Zachary dusts his collection of "poos."

Come see me at The Grove Craft Fair this Saturday, April 25 from 9 am to 12 noon. (Address: 20105 S Gilbert Road Chandler, AZ 85286) There will be approximately 50 vendors selling everything from clothing to baked goods and free activities for kids (including a bounce!) I've been promised a rare, shady spot in the courtyard so I should be easy to find.

Here's a taste of some of the goodies you'll find at my table: framed cut paper art works by yours truly, my sister Heidi's beautifully sewn tote bags and my sister Brooke's adorable hair accessories.

Hope to see you there!
