Travel the World with Baby Brown Bear and Air Supply!

"No matter if you get in trouble you can always return home."  Life is full of opportunities for adventure, and for mistakes and mischief along the way! This week's guest, Author Cari Hitchcock, shares her delightful children's book series, The Adventures of Baby Brown Bear, where Baby Brown Bear takes us on his travels around the world. From Australia, The Philippines, Mexico and New York City, Baby Brown Bear and his caring humans Mr Kazoo and Pookie Boo not only take us on an inspiring adventure of local delights, they also remind us of the value of connection and forgiveness. Inspired by her travels with Air Supply band, led by husband Russell Hitchcock, Cari shares some of the real-life mischief that the stuffed animal who inspired the book series get into on their world travels while touring with the beloved classic rock band.  Do you have a stuffy that you or a loved one found to be the perfect travel companion?

Boopable! An Adorable, Boopable Book with it's Own Theme Song!

Boopable! by Mary Ann Redmond: I Love This Book! Hi everyone! I'm Dr Shafer, and I love this book! Welcome back to the book-loving podcast where I share with you the books I love as a physician, publisher, writer, and mom. Today, I love this book from ALL of those perspectives, as well as the perspective of being a singer-songwriter and lover of music! Not only is today's book adorably boopable, the words were turned into an infectious bop that you won't be able to get out of your head... and you won't want to! Mary Ann Redmond is a children's author, award-winning singer-songwriter AND dog mom to TikTok famous dog, Indi the border collie. A lover of the animals inside and outside of her home, Mary Ann was inspired to share a sweet and engaging story about what would happen if you booped not just a dog's wet nose... but what if you booped a tiger? Are you brave enough to boop a bear? Join me for a discussion of Boopable! Fantastic for your youngest readers and enjoyed by all ages as a connective and joyful experience learning about animals and exploring how we would feel getting close enough to give them a sweet "boop" on the nose, Boopable is sure to become a staple in your home.  Check out Mary Ann Redmond's original song that accompanies the book, "Boopable!" and join my family in singing it day and night. It's a quick way to put a smile on your family's faces and a wiggle in your step! We've been enjoying it on car rides to school ever since we fell in love with this catchy tune.
