I had a wonderful time at the Pontotoc Farmers' Market Saturday, July 11. Exhibits included information about the Lewis and Clark Trail, and a representative from the Chickasaw Nation. There were also the usual delicious fresh vegetables, and me singing and playing, with the help of several audience members. These two little girls picked up the rhythm right away, and seemed to really enjoy having someone take their picture!

Here's my schedule for the rest of the summer and on into fall.  Hope to see you at one or more of these events!

  A large crowd enjoys the stories at the New Albany Library. I love to have children (and sometimes adults!) take part in the stories, by acting out scenes, providing sound effects, and playing percussion instruments when we sing songs. The stories truly come alive when you take part!

   I always enjoy the Summer Reading Program in libraries throughout the State.  For this year's theme "Every Hero Has a Story" I chose 2 stories of reconciliation, where the hero/heroine solves problems using his or her wits, compassion, and kindness.  True heroes!

      Recently performed at the Myrtle, MS library for the summer reading program "Every Hero Has a Story." Wonderful group of children and parents!
