February

Why not pick up The Barefoot Book of Classic Poems or The Barefoot Book of Fairy Tales to share with someone you love this month? If an enchanting fairy tale is what you are seeking, I recommend The Princess and the White Bear King. One of my favorite books any time of year is The Boy Who Grew Flowers ... Visit my web-site today for these and many more stories that will make to smile.

Chinese New Year

Race with the animals of the Zodiac as they compete to have the years of the Chinese calendar named after them. The excitement-filled story is followed by notes on the Chinese calendar, important Chinese holidays, and a chart outlining the animal signs based on birth years. The Great Race: The Story of the Chinese Zodiac

Visit my web-site today for other beautiful stories of Chinese culture.

Fundraisers

My Barefoot Books fundraiser continues for the Inside Out Playground. When you place your Barefoot Books order direct through me by order form or phone, and mention the fundraiser for The Inside Out Playground, 15% of all sales will go to this wonderful community indoor playground and pre-school. Though the IOP sadly closed it's doors to the public this past November 2009, they are still left with some bills to pay and this fundraiser now contributes to that cause. This continues to be a perfect opportunity to bring quality books into your home and help the community at the same time.

I also have an on-going fundraiser for The Autism Society of Maine gives 15% of all sales toThe Autisim Society of Maine when you order direct through me by order form or phone, or on-line and and mention the fundraiser for The Autism Society of Maine.

Please contact me if you are interested in a fundraiser for your school or group.

Thank You

And a very big Thank You goes out to everyone who contributed to my fundrasier for the FUTURE MSAD 3 Capital Campaign for the Mount View School Performing Arts Center. They had set out a five year plan to raise $500,000 and in just seventeen months, they were able to raise over $624,000!!! Congratulations! I am so honored to have been a part of the campaign, as I deeply belive music, dance, theater, and art, in it's many many forms, is essential to feeding our souls... both personally as well as that of the community, and that becomes a very beautiful way of nurturing our children & our planet.

Raising Readers

I'd also like to remind folks that, through my doula practice, Mothers Moon, I am veryvery proud to be part of the raising readers program. When a mother chooses me as her doula, I get to present her with a beautiful canvas tote with a selection of books, a growth chart, and information about the raising readers program. Sometimes, I also have the chance to read a little something from them to the new child or older siblings! It's such a wonderful program! Families that schedule well-child visits with other particapating caregivers also will be given two Barefoot Books titles as well as a selection of other age/developmental stage books, from baby to toddler to pre-schooler!
