Good Morning Everyone,

I could easily blame COtoryVD for my lack of activity, truthfully it is just me. Call it nerves, lack of confidence, whatever you will. It is not lack of confidence in my work or knowledge but rather an internal fear. Although in my head and heart most of you are kind, I am terrified of my reaction to anyone who isn’t so kind. I am going to start sharing some books and reading tips to assist with reluctant readers along with Storytelling.  

The summer reading theme this year is “Oceans of Possibilities” at most libraries nationwide, in honor of this theme and to have little fun, if you (and I know you do, even if you won’t admit it to your child) like underwear humor and pirates, check out my good friend and storyteller Bill Harley’s Dirty Joe the Pirate https://www.billharley.com/books/dirty-joe-the-pirate/

Have a great day everyone.  
Don’t forget to smile..

Smiles make friends, friends make memories and memories make stories.
