I’m a member of the Facebook group “Parents, Find Children’s Books and Authors Here.” As the author of a children’s book called “Making New Friends,” I like to see what both authors and parents are sharing in this group. Well, I have to tell you that I was fascinated to find this charming young boy by the name of Stanley Singh in the group. I listened to him read a children’s story and was captivated by his accent and how expressive he was in telling the story. I immediately wanted to find out more about him. So, here we go!

A Helping Hand

As you grow older you will discover that you have two hands. One for helping yourself, the other for helping others. ~ Audrey Hepburn

As those lazy, crazy, hazy days of summer slowly draw to a close, I’ve begun thinking about Fall. It’s time to think about doing something useful with my time. This thinking resulted in my procuring an application form to volunteer in a “Leading to Reading Program” once a week. It’s held and sponsored by the Toronto Public Library. It’s a wonderful opportunity to help children having difficulty with reading improve their skills.
