Dragon Loves Tacos

April 28, 2020

Most of you know I am so proud of my nephew, Anthony, and he is graduating from Notre Dame soon with a masters in Global Health. Very soon. Besides studying hard for all of his classes, he also runs cross country and track for Notre Dame. Next year he will begin Medical School.

This is him running in a National Championship for Cross Country in which his team did well! Yay!

Notre Dame invited athletes from all sports to join in supporting Feeding America by reading books aloud for children to enjoy. Feeding America helps provide food to families who are in need. A great example of an act of Kindness

And this is my nephew reading aloud, Dragon Loves Tacos, by Adam Rubin and illus by Daniel Salmieri. Listen to this hysterical story!

Coronavirus Information

April 24, 2020

Happy Friday! 

Two great e-books have caught my eye. These two ebooks are fantastic and provide so much great information about the Coronavirus and what we can do to stay healthy. 

I am sure that in time each of the ebooks will be made into paper books, but it takes time to publish paper books. I will be on the look out for them!
