Children's Book Lucky By Craig Inglis Review and GIVEAWAY - Does your child like to read?

By
Does your child like to read? My Lil Man loves reading. Just the other day, I caught Lil Man with Mickey Mouse under his arm while he was reading to him. He was just jabbering away, and showing Mickey each picture. We usually read about 3-4 books at nap, and then 3-4 at bedtime (not counting any books we might read in between).

So when I had the opportunity to review Lucky by Craig Inglis, I jumped at the chance. Lil Man was pretty excited to check it out too.

Reading Lucky

Lucky is about dog who overcomes some pretty big obstacles after a car accident. I will admit, as I was reading the book, at first, I thought it was a little intense. But as the book progressed, I was pleased to see that it had an uplifting story about overcoming hardships. And I liked how the author ended the book with Lucky's new found abilities. Lil Man, since he's just 2, didn't grasp the concept about overcoming obstacles. But he was mesmerized by the vibrant pictures. He loved all of the bright colors.

So I thought I'd share a copy with you. One lucky winner no pun intended ;) will win a copy of Lucky by Craig Inglis. Just enter below. The Giveaway ends June 24, 2013. Good luck!

Full Disclosure: I was provided with a copy of Lucky free of charge for the purpose of providing a review. My opinions are completely my own based on my experience.

    For me it isn't my kids but my brothers, boyfriends niece and nephew and sometimes even kids at the library where I volunteer. As for how often, it varies greatly on who I am reading to. :)

2 Weeks Post Mohs Surgery

By
May 26, 2021 3:40pm  Finally, the phone call that I'd been waiting on. It was the Medical Center. ( Finally, we can schedule my surgery. ) She tells me who she is, and then tells me that she has a cancellation for tomorrow. ( Me stammering... )  "Ok, but I was thinking the end of June."   Then I hear "We just had a moment to look at your file. We really don't think that you should wait. We really think you should come in tomorrow at 8:15am" ( Me stammering again ) "Ok, I'll be there."  Wait, what? My mind is all over the place. I'm supposed to work. How am I going to get our son to school? Will my husband be able to go with me on such short notice. I expected this to be the end of June, not tomorrow. I'm not prepared! I was overcome with emotion.  May 26, 2021 Surgery Day I woke up at 1am with a horrible headache. By the time we arrived at the surgery center, I was definitely a bundle of nerves. I got checked in, went through the usual ...

Feel All the Feels Then Deal

By
Not what I expected when the phone rang. It was a routine dermatology appointment.  "Do you have any concerns?" “Yes, a small spot on my face. It comes and goes. Two weeks ago it had disappeared (again). So I'm actually glad that it’s back.”  It was the size of a pin head. It was teeny tiny. A nuisance, but not something that really seemed to bother me. “I suspect that it’s skin cancer.”  “So, we just burn if off, right?” “No, it needs to be cut out and sent to the lab.” I was not prepared for this. It’s on my lip! She’s going to cut a hole in my lip! She warns me that the shot is going to hurt and possibly a lot. She tells me this several times. (I’m thinking surely it can’t be that bad.)  I was wrong.  It hurt.  A lot.  I’m creeped out at the thoughts of her taking a chunk off of my face at the top of my lip. I’m even more creeped out as she tells me she’s going to burn it to stop the bleeding. Time and time again I hear the sizzle and the smell is n...

It's Been a Hot Minute

By
It's been a hot minute since I've written anything.... over a year. Between being a mom, full time student, and a substitute teacher during a pandemic, writing hasn't been a priority. More than once,  I've felt like I was in survival mode with classes. I didn't expect early block  to be so intense.  I admit that I broke down and cried several times this semester with feeling overwhelmed. But, I endured until the end, and I got straight A's for the semester. I'm proud of myself that I didn't give up. I am enrolled in 2 summer class, and 4 fall classes and studying for standardized tests that I must pass before I can begin my student internship.  I will be close to 50 when I graduate. Am I too old to do this? Who starts a career at 50????? I guess I do. I don't know what's going to happen when I graduate. I do know that I am enjoying the course work, and I'm enjoying being able to put what I have learned into practice as a substitute.  This sch...
