The Dear Baby Mailbox
Dear Carol,
I wanted to write you a note of thanks as a new parent.  My daughter Jessica was born in April and Dear Baby, What I love about you! is the very first book I read to her. She's now 7 mos old, and we read it together every night before bed.  She still laughs with delight as we read the words that she has grown to know so well.  It's a great comfort to her after an often busy day.  And it's a wonderful time for me to treasure our quiet time together.  So I thank you for writing such an adorable book.  As an avid reader I hope to instill in her the same love for books that I've had throughout my life.  I think this book will help pave the way~
Sincerely,
Diane M. Yonkers, NY
p.s.  we are delighted to learn that Dear Baby, Let's Dance!  will be coming next year!

Author Blog
Welcome to our new interactive blog

We are meeting so many fun moms and kids here in Atlanta and on the road (some dads too!) that we want to provide a place to have more of a conversation.  I’m also getting lots of questions on writing and the publishing process so we will have future blogs divided into family and parenting stories and stories about creating our books and launching our publishing company.  Sometimes they overlap since my business partner is my husband.  : )

Occasionally I’ll ask YOU for your stories and answers to MY questions.  Building a business and raising a family have a lot of similarities.  It’s all about making good decisions.  And sharing learned experiences can help us make informed decisions.  So get a cup of coffee or tea, or pour a glass of wine and let’s chat!
