Guest Blogging

Psst, I'm not really here because I'm hard at work for NaNoWriMo (totally rocking it, btw), BUT I had agreed to do a guest post over at Ink and Angst forever ago, so I'm over there talking about 10,000 hours.

Also, if you haven't commented on the Blog Tour post for Connie Arnold's Count 1, 2, 3 With Me, go and do it to be entered into a drawing for three great prizes! :)

Hope ya'll are having a great November!

Blog Tour: Count 1, 2, 3 With Me

So yes, I'm really still on break, hard at work on NaNoWriMo (so far so good!), but I had the opportunity to be part of Connie Arnold's Blog Tour for the release of her latest picture book, Count 1,2,3 With Me. This tour is Also for her new inspiration book, Peaceful Moments of Love and Light. Connie is such a sweet, kind, and supportive author, so I was thrilled to be asked and couldn't turn it down.

I had the chance to read Connie's book, which counts from one to ten, painting scenes from the life of a child. It has a fun rhyming text, with bright, vivid images which can easily be counted by children learning to count. As a parent, I love that the text is short, without feeling skimpy. Counting the objects together would easily add length if you were looking to spend more time on a book, but I love finding quick, fun reads that I can read to my kids at night (especially when it is past bedtime--more than likely mine!).  

You can purchase this book from Connie's website, from Amazon, or from 4RV Publishing. These links will take you directly to her book.

Also, Readers can comment on this post, or on the posts of other stops in the blog tour, to receive entries in a drawing for three prizes: 

1. A set of three candle holders.
2. A signed copy of Connie's first book.
3. A framed sunset print with one of Connie's inspirational verses.

Details about the blog tour, prizes and schedule are on Connie's blog.
