Disney’s CHRISTOPHER ROBIN out in theaters August 3rd.
Winnie the Pooh is one of my favorite all-time characters. There is just something so sweet and endearing about him and his friends. Heck, even The Tao of Pooh is one of my favorite books. I even used A.A. Milne’s idea of having the stuffed animals in Christopher Robin’s bedroom stacked around his bed in my first children’s book, Penelope the Purple Pirate! In the first and last scene in the book you will find Penelope’s friends hanging around her bedroom. Hey, when someone has a good idea… And A.A. Milne has created on of the most timeless and endearing characters of all time! I am super excited that…

Together, we helped raised over 300 Project Night Night tote bags that were given out to children in shelters across the country and supported the #LikeAGirl campaign that empowers young girls.

This month I was asked by a long-time dandelion mom if our community could help…

Netflix original series DreamWorks The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants premieres July 13th
TRA-LA-LAAAA! So excited! We absolutely love these books and I have to say as a mom of a reluctant reader that the Captain Underpants book series really helped my daughter become more interested in reading. Now, she will pick up a book and read it for the joy of reading but there was a period of time a few years back that it was really tough to convince her to pick up a book, but she really connected the Captain Underpants and it was a turning point for her. Hurray for books like these that help with our reluctant readers! Fans of Captain Underpants – hold tight and get ready for…

Tips for Spending Quality Time with the Family
We like to enjoy a family night-in about once a week. Usually it falls on a Friday or Saturday night and it’s a great time for us to spend time together, whether we are playing board games, cards (my daughter is extremely lucky… ) or watching a movie together, I do treasure these moments as I anticipate it might get harder to have my soon-to-be teenager to want to “hang with the parents.” I think though that teens, especially teens, still need this family time to reconnect and stay grounded during these rather whirlwind years. One of our new favorite movies, A Wrinkle in Time, will appeal to just about every family.…
