But then there is less ME to show" - it so encapsulates the messiness of creativity. Thanks for featuring it.

"If you make me, I will put my things away. But then there is less ME to show." This reminds me of my father who rarely put his "toys" away. He always said if he put things away and couldn't see them, he might risk forgetting about them. This book by Peter Reynolds is quite the treasure.

Some picture book authors use humor to include adults in their audience, I think Peter includes adults simply by being profound.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647389869700092299.post-21462962793833275282017-03-17T09:19:29.958-05:002017-03-17T09:19:29.958-05:00Thank you, Julie.

I'd love to read that study about dreamers. You're gonna love Peter's dreamy new book! I was fortunate to get my copy from that student through our Scholastic Book Fair. <br /><br />I am now a regular guest blogger for Free Spirit's Counselor Corner, so watch for my posts every month or so, sometimes more frequently. It's a great honor to be a part of such a fantastic publishing family.<br /><br />Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10926426214201766983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647389869700092299.post-67004173886360257202017-03-17T08:34:42.763-05:002017-03-17T08:34:42.763-05:00I really enjoyed your thoughts about Peter's r...I really enjoyed your thoughts about Peter's recent book! I've been waiting for the release of this gem. It's so important that kids have a dream, it makes all the difference in their lives later on. There was a study done on kids who do and don't dream. Very interesting. Can't wait to receive my copy. <br /><br />Hooray! I am thrilled that Free Spirit published your inspiring post on integrity. Love their books. Will you continue to write for them.
