Help Kids to be Courageous

I love children's books because illustration with words can become the most beautiful message. And if animals are some of the main characters, all the better!
If you haven't already seen it, pick up the book "Courageous Gilbert the Groundhog" at Amazon.com. Local author Regina E. McCarthy and her illustrator, Sue Dettman, created a wonderful book of characters and important messages--including
anti-bullying! It's a great way to empower kids and build self-esteem. WTTW - TV (11) did a nice piece on it when I did the launch PR awhile back.
Unfortunately, bullies can be found everywhere. It's getting close to Back to School time, so pick up the book in case you need to bring up this tough topic with a young person. The groundhog is very brave and the book is an awesome tool to get kids talking about what's going on at school or on the bus.
Blue Stone Healing Books are developed to help hear the hearts of children so they may lead healthy lives as adults.

If you need helping picking your activity for the weekend, I recommend "Pedal" from Crain's Top 10 List!  (I'm handling publicity). See you out there.  

 

PEDAL. Take a disco nap, because you'll need the energy when you stay up to ride in the 24th annual L.A.T.E. bike ride. More than 9,000 cyclists are expected to pass through South Loop, Chinatown and Greektown under the stars. You'll finish with a sunrise breakfast. June 30 - July 1, 11 p.m. - 6 a.m. Cost is $45, proceeds benefit Friends of the Parks. Columbus Drive and Congress Parkway, www.lateride.org
