Penguin Flies Home
Penguin loves everything about flying: the wind beneath his wings, the song that rises from his belly, and the sight of new and wonderful places. Still, he misses his penguin friends in the South Pole. So, he flips and flaps back home, ready to teach them the magic of flight!
But when he arrives, his enthusiasm for flying doesn’t get quite the reaction he expected. Will Penguin’s friends still like him, even if they don’t share his soaring dreams?
It's World Read Aloud Day - excited to be reading to kids across America and beyond!

My daily sketch for today - we have a pair of foxes that frequent our and I feel fortunate each time I see them, especially when they are draped in their winter coats. So much beauty and panache.

These little rascals are sitting on my easel as I try to write a story for them. I always seem to start with characters first when beginning a book. And then little by little, the pieces to a puzzle come together.

It's such a warm start to the year, I'm getting spring fever. I know, snow ahead, but today, dreaming of whimsical days in my garden.

I took a claycation during the holiday and made myself some ceramic pencil holders. (Still needs firing) Carving and playing with clay is one of my favorite vacations ever. Now I can't sleep because my mind has a gazillion ideas - filling my well with clay and play.

Sharing another oldie this morning. But it's sledding puppies and wintery fun, I think we can always use a little of that energy!
