Aggie’s book signing

Today I ventured over to Barnes and Noble to story time and book signing in the Haunted Woods.  My friend Sharon Full, who writes under the name Sharon Parker, read her children’s ‘read along’ book about Grama Aggie and the dancing chickens!  The chickens loved to dance with Aggie, and by the end of the book, the grumpy farmers were laughing and dancing and eating Aggie’s rhubarb and strawberry tarts.

It’s an amazing, delightful book, with cute rhymes and colorful photos – and a captivating story.  And the children in attendance all agreed, and were spellbound the entire time.  Aggie not only read the story, but sang two songs and even taught the kids to yodel.  All the little ones could choose a sticker of Aggie yodeling or the chickens dancing, and she also had a little treat to hand out, with Aggie’s picture on the outside.  She was engaging and drew all of us in, and in addition has a very good singing voice, including the yodels! 

If you get a chance, pick up the book for a special little one in your life, and keep your eyes alert for more great things from Sharon.  I’m sure her creativity will not be stifled and we will see her all over the place.  And in the meantime, get out there and dance with the chickens.  And don’t forget to yodel!
