Let’s Celebrate!

Sending You Sammy is the perfect way to celebrate a birthday - mine and yours! Mine’s coming up on Tuesday, August 25th so make sure you have your copy to read with me.

Wouldn’t it be a celebration if all of you read the book the same time I did?  Let’s read it just after lunch, say 1 O’Clock? Are you in?

Help Me Make Sending You Sammy #1

Currently my children’s book helping fight childhood obesity is #77 in Children’s Books - Science, Natures & How It Works - Health - Fiction on Amazon.ca. This is such a specific category that is perfect for the first of the Adventures Of Sammy series that I know it won’t take much to put and keep it #1. It may seem like a small accomplishment but it’ll definitely be a start in the right direction.

Once we get it to appear as #1 in this category we’ll take over another until it’s the #1 in the Children’s Books category!!’

INCREDIBLE:  September 16, 2009.  SOOOOO Close. Sending You Sammy will be #1 this week, I just know it. 

#4,282 in Books (See Bestsellers in Books)

Popular in these categories:

#5 in  Books > Children’s Books > Science, Nature & How It Works > Health > Fiction
#5 in  Books > Children’s Books > Issues > Personal Hygiene
#21 in  Books > Teens > Literature & Fiction > Adventure & Thrillers

Update: June 24, 2009 it sits at #75 in Children’s Books - Science, Natures & How It Works - Health - Fiction . Up two notches!  Let’s keep up the momentum.

WOW!!! :) August 28th shows Sending You Sammy as #6 in Books > Children’s Books > Science, Nature & How It Works > Health > Fiction and #10 in Books > Children’s Books > Issues > Personal Hygiene

We’re so close! Let’s keep it going and make this #1 in both of these categories before school starts!!

Sammy Creates Buzz at the Zoo

What a beautiful morning to spend at the zoo. The sun was shining, the breeze took the flies away and Sending You Sammy gleams in the bright light. With everyone geared up for a run in the zoo for the great cause of building a new Tiger Exhibit for the Magnetic Hill Zoo, Sammy was on everyone’s lips.

Literacy, eating healthy and exercise all go together in Sammy’s world as they should in yours. Enjoy your day the healthy way!
