herby_2013-12-25Merry Christmas to one and all!

Look for opportunities to give the gift of love to those around you, and may you and yours be blessed in the new year.

 

Don’t look now, but the holidays are upon us! If you need some ideas for those on your Christmas gift list, consider giving the gift of Herby the Parrot! My book Herby Gets a Life is a collection of Herby’s cartoons along with his thoughts and encouragements on life that teach positive character traits and life values. It’s perfect for children, but can be enjoyed by everyone. Click here to order my book on Amazon.com, or you can order it through any bookseller.

You can also find Herby in his own 12-month calendar! Click here to order the Herby the Parrot & Friends 2014 Wall Calendar and brighten up your space or the space of someone you know with Herby and his friends!

I wish you and yours a safe and blessed Thanksgiving. May we all take time to truly give thanks for the blessings in our lives.

 

So what have I been up to? And why haven’t I been posting new cartoons?

Herby the Parrot and I are excited to announce that we have been busy working on Herby’s very first book! Published by Imagine! Books and appropriately titled Herby Gets a Life, this is a collection of Herby’s cartoons along with his thoughts and encouragements on life and positive life values. It’s all cleverly formatted and geared for third- to fifth- graders, though we’re rather sure it will be enjoyed both by children and children-at-heart alike.

Now that the cat’s out of the bag (hopefully it will leave poor Herby alone), we hope you are excited as much as we are to see Herby’s adventures come alive in book form. Go to Herby the Parrot’s brand-new Facebook page and “Like” him! And stay tuned for more updates and how you can get ahold of a copy of Herby’s very first book, scheduled to be released in mid-March!

Herby the Parrot comes to life in this 12-month calendar. Brighten up your space with Herby and his friends today! Click here to order  & thank you for your support!

 

Think about relaxing at a beach. Soft sand between your toes, the warm sun on your skin, cool breezes, crashing waves, and sparkling water. The beach can be a relaxing, refreshing, and exciting place to be. Life may not always feel that way, as there’s plenty to cause us aggravation and stress: work, school, activities, other people, our own hopes and fears. But Herby imagines that life, like a beach, really can be enjoyable if we embrace all it has to offer.

Do you find yourself drained and weighed down by the stresses of life? What would it be like to be re-energized, refreshed, and full of excitement again? What could you do to get there?

Sometimes life doesn’t seem very fun, and we can find ourselves in a rut. Maybe you can’t necessarily take a vacation to the beach, but try taking a step back from your ordinary routine to rest and recharge. Look for new experiences to re-awaken your senses and replenish your energy. Don’t settle for a life that’s dull and unexciting. Life is yours for the living, so “get out there and enjoy it!”
