I know it might be a lot to ask of people to not shop on Black Friday – but if you are one of the families that drop the consumerism and want some family friendly event to attend – come to the Jingle Bell Walk tomorrow!  This is an annual event that I have been part of for the past 5  years or so – if you’ve never been, it’s so worth it!

Click on Ole’ Saint Nick above to get more information about tomorrow’s event.  My show begins at 3:00!

I hope everyone out there has a safe and fun Thanksgiving! Make some memories that you will be telling people about for years to come!

Saturday will be a busy day – my first stop is at the Norwell Library for the Fall Festival, make sure you stop by!  My stories will be starting at 10:30am.  Then, I am going to be happily heading to the Ipswich Library for a 2:00pm show!  Make sure to come by one of the shows – they will be full of fantastic fall fun!  Click on the images for more information.

Here is a letter that a student wrote me after I did a show at her school last year.  I like the part where she mentions “everyone was at least smiling”.  I will take that as a win!

Here is one of my favorite books to read about family!  What better month to read about family than November. When you sit down around your table this Thanksgiving this year, take a moment to tell your Grandmother or Grandfather how much you love them. Too many people are without their loved ones and this time a year it highlights it a little more than any other time.

I had a stellar crowd at the library tonight – especially since my favorite little audience member was in the crowd… Alexandra!  She came with me and my wife to have some Halloween fun!

I really do enjoy this time of year!  The weather being colder and the crowds are much more colorful – you know, seeing as they are in costume!

These little guys come back to the neighborhood every once in a while. I like to think its because they miss me – but the truth is probably more about the businesses around us tearing more and more of their home down.

Title: The Dark
Author: Lemony Snicket
Illustrator: Jon Klassen
Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers

I think that books with messages are great – of course they are meant to entertain – but if you have a way of working a message in as well. well, then you really have something special! The better thing, if you can work it in, is give a child a power against a fear. This books talks about how the child in the story conquers his fear of the dark.  Pick it up – especially in this great, spooky month!
