Colorado Signing to benefit camp near Estes Park

So here's the deal---

This Saturday from 5-7pm Caper's Italian Bistro in Longmont (600 S. Airport Rd.)
is hosting a book signing! All the of the proceeds from the sales of the children's books, and some of the proceeds from that nights restaurant receipts, will go to sending kids battling cancer to a special camp near Estes Park? (http://www.wapiyapi.org)

I'll be signing copies of "Willie's Wagon " (ages 6-9) and "A Hog Ate My Homework" (ages 7-11) ( Just $7 each). We will also have giveaways every half hour. Free coloring books and bookmarks will also be given out to every kid.

Please forward this to any friends (or post it on blogs etc) that you think would enjoy a good meal, a good children's book (or two) and supporting a good cause!

Let's fill the restaurant and have some fun!
See ya Saturday night!

For more on what we are doing check out www.willieswagon.com. There is a video there of a similar camp we visited last year.

Summer Reading!

I am exciting to see that so many groups are really working hard to keep our kids reading this summer. I have attended a number of events--and have many more lined up.

I am also working ahead to another busy school year with both Willie's Wagon and A Hog Ate My Homework! Willie's next adventure is in the works, too.

I hope your summer is going well.

I want to hear from some of you. It has been awhile.
