Bosley Goes to the Beach (English-Spanish) Review and Giveaway

As you know, Lil Man and I love books. And we've recently added a new one to our collection. It's called Bosley Goes to the Beach, and it's by Timothy Johnson from theLanguageBear.com.

These books are designed to teach young children new words in various languages. We chose the English-Spanish version. But there are several options to choose from such as Spanish, French, Italian, German, Russian and Japanese.

I really enjoyed the story. It's about a bear named Bosley and his adventure at the beach. The story was well written and easy to follow. And the illustrations were excellent.

We were reading the Kindle version, and I liked how some of the key words were different colors which made it easy to point out in both languages. I would definitely recommend this book to friends. In fact, I couldn't mind having the entire series. And because of that, I'm giving away a copy to one of my readers.

One lucky winner will receive either a print or digital copy of their choice. Enter to win. Good luck.

The giveaway is from July 10- July 15.

Full Disclosure: theLanguageBear provided me with a free copy of the book for the purpose of providing a review. My opinions are completely my own based on my experience.

Rejection

You'd think as many times as I've been rejected in my life that rejection wouldn't hurt anymore. Really, I can't count the number of times that I've been rejected, or slighted, or been on the receiving end of cruel words. I'm almost 40 for pete's sake. Rejection shouldn't bring tears anymore, but it still does. It just seems like I've been faced with it a lot lately. It started with the Running and has seemed to carry over into other parts of my life. I have spent most of my life on the sidelines watching other people. That's what happened with the marathon. Once again, I'm on the side as others do things that I want to do. I trained. I had to have an unexpected surgery. I got injured. I couldn't run. It happens. It isn't the end of the world. But what many don't realize is that there are numerous times in my life that I am on the sidelines, watching, wishing I was the one 'out there' - not the one watching. . But

What Summer Taught Me

This Summer has been a big learning experience - for both Lil Man and myself. Who knew that an amusement park could be such a learning experience for both of us. I watched as my little boy, all on his own, climbed stairs among strangers, learned how to wait his turn, slide down a water slide, and do it over and over again. I watched as other kids shoved him out of their way, cut in front of him as he stood patiently 'waiting for his turn'. Groves of bigger kids kept cutting in front of him, and I held back and gave him time to respond. This for me was a learning experience. See, people have to have room or space to grow. So I learned how to let go, let out the leash a little, and give Lil Man some space. The first time the kids pushed him aside, he really didn't know what to do. After a few minutes of this, I did intervene. I told him to get in line. Take his turn, and when it was his turn he was to go. And the next time as other kids pushed past him, it only took a few

2 Weeks Post Mohs Surgery

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
