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.

Eleventh Hour Fun & Frights

Eleventh Hour's four haunted houses are full of fun and frights.
Several of the actors and our street team visited NBC 5 this morning for a fun segment.
Last weekend's event at Woodfield Mall was equally jam-packed with entertainment.
Who knew Halloween was so much fun?

Eleventh Hour was featured in the Chicago Tribune and other major press.  I can't wait to see a morning TV segment we have coming up. Great venue; great coverage.  These folks are pillars in the community too...it's very rewarding to develop and participate in all of the community programs.  The haunted houses this year celebrate Eleventh Hour's 15th anniversary, continuing to raise money for Shady Oaks camp for kids with cerebral palsy (having raised nearly $75,000 since inception).  And Friends of the Parks and The Anti-Cruelty Society will also benefit from promotions this year.



Come visit our haunts now through October 31!   www.eleventhhour.info.
