Summer Toys and Books



Chris Byrne "The Toy Guy" was on Live With Kelly and Regis twice last week to show his hot toy picks for the summer. Check out his picks here on his website.
He answers viewers' questions on the Live With Kelly and Regis Website. I enjoyed the questions and answers... especially how he defends the Toy Industry concerning toy safety. Check it out here.

This week on INK: Interesting Nonfiction for Kids I reviewed my second segment of Summer Books for Kids titled Go Green. Check out both segments here.






Today on Just One More Book's 2nd Year Anniversary Celebration Podcast, you can hear me mention Books, Toys, Etc and my very favorite book of this summer.
Yes, I made a Podcast!
Check it out here.
