I cannot begin to count the number of books my wife and I have read to our boys. Whether it's a bedtime story, a rainy day read-a-thon or any other opportunity that comes our way, books have been a major point of our kids' lives. Some books I love to read again and again and some books I beg to be put back on the shelf.
My number one goal is that my books can be enjoyed by not only the kiddos, but the parents and guardians that will inevitably read them a hundred times over. Enjoy every moment of reading with your little ones. I know I have.

Books.....I mean Book. Just One For Now
Bear and the Three Goldilocks
You’ll laugh out loud at this funny fractured folktale with pictures by a popular artist!
The Goldilocks family leave their campsite to go on a hike while their s’mores cool off . . . when along comes Bear.
“What’s that yummy smell?” Bear wonders. S’mores, of course: too gooey, too chocolatey . . . and just right! Bear eats them all.
Bear continues to wreak havoc by breaking a chair, smashing musical instruments, and extinguishing the fire. When the Goldilocks return, they are flabbergasted. They try to make a lot of noise to shoo away the bear . . . when Mama Bear and Papa Bear show up. Mama and Papa apologize profusely for the behavior of their naughty offspring, but the Goldilocks don’t speak “Bear.” They just hear a lot of LOUD GROWLING. So they decide to hightail it out of there, and the Bear family gets to enjoy the tents and snacks that are left behind.
This hilarious story, a perfect readaloud, and its hilarious pictures will delight children and parents alike.

Reviews:
Deadpan prose from debut author Horne is a deliciously mischievous match for flat colors and crisp graphic shapes from Yaccarino. —Publishers Weekly |
