It was been a busy September so far here at the Toymaker’s Workshop.
I am working on the most exciting project ever! It is a series of
books that will explain hospital procedures like shots and cat scans
to children with cancer. More news on this in a few weeks when the
website www.bowregarde.com
is posted!
************************************************************************
There are a few new toys this month...
There is a special secret Super
Car here:
http://www.thetoymaker.com/Toypages/26Supercar/mysterygift.html
And a “Read-O-Meter” that you can find down at the bottom
of my workshop page here:
http://www.thetoymaker.com/3WORKSHOP.html
It is a page that helps kids keep track of the books that they have
read.

My friend, storyteller Dianne De Las Casas lost her
home in the Katrina hurricane in New Orleans. You can read about her
story here:

She sent me this email…
I am now looking for touring opportunities in other areas. I would
appreciate it if you could pass my name and contact information along
to schools and agencies that may be looking to hire children’s
performers. My new contact information is:
Dianne de Las Casas
8722 Warrenford Drive
Houston, TX 77083
281-561-1977 ph
dianne@storyconnection.net
http://www.storyconnection.net
So if anyone knows of any schools that need an amazing storyteller
then please pass her info along. I also recommend her very entertaining
CDs for kids that have to take long car trips. We have her "Jambalaya
- Stories with Louisiana Flavor" and especially enjoy “The
Ghost of Jean Lafitte”…. Ooooh! Spooky!
Wishing you a week filled with good stories to tell!
Best thoughts,
