It's catch up time

For real this time.... I uploaded a ton of photos and realized I have pics all the back to the beginning of October so yes... get ready... we are doing a flash back before getting up to date.

Back in October one of my favorite EVER author/illustrator combo came to Book People - a bookstore here in Austin that is just fantastic. They feature a ton of authors and illustrators - mostly kids - which I love. Those are the authors that I follow really....

So anywho back to the author/illustrator - Eric Litwin and James Dean - the creators of Pete the Cat series came to Austin. I send out and email to all of my class and told them about how awesome these guys truly are -- especially in person. They came out with their new book, Pete the Cat Rockin' in my School Shoes, - a follow up to Pete the Cat I love my White Shoes. Both of these can be read like a regular book OR sung to the tune that they provide.

If you click here you can hear them read the book and hear the song

And because I don't know how to load a video directly from youtube onto my current post you will see them on a youtube video in my next post. Click on it - they are truly awesome to take your little ones to if you ever get a chance. They get them up dancing, laughing, clapping - they are there for the kids for sure.

Their books are great and my Kindergarten class truly loves them. Below are some photos from their book signing and performance.
