Happy Thanksgiving Hammy
Before young readers are old enough to hear about Pilgrims, Indians, the first Thanksgiving, and Plymouth Rock, they still have a sense of what it means to be thankful. Don Hoffman's upcoming children's book Happy Thanksgiving Hammy is about a young child, Jesse, and his missing hamster, Hammy. Jesse has many things to be thankful for this Thanksgiving: his dog named Lucy, a red apple a neighbor gave him, and his Uncle Ernie who makes him laugh (even though he is the only one who thinks he's funny). But most of all, Jesse is thankful for finding his pet hamster hiding under the washing machine just two days before Thanksgiving day. Hammy was so hungry! Jesse and his family cook a special Thanksgiving meal in celebration and even invite Hammy along.
Christmas Bells
The sound of Christmas bells brings back great memories for all of us! But when you're four years old and those bells are around the neck of your most favorite wish -- a brand new puppy -- your past memories turn to future glee! Written with a contemporary reader in mind, Don Hoffman's Christmas Bells evokes memories of an enduring favorite, The Night Before Christmas by Clement C. Moore. In addition, Don Hoffman's Christmas Bells is projected to accommodate some added fun -- when a button is pressed the sound of bells ring to a young reader's surprise and delight.
