The Dancing Chameleons

Bored being just verde (green) on a leaf or marron (brown) on a trunk, Carlos the Chameleon ventures out on a limb to see and be more colors. He turns amarillo (yellow) when he dances La Mariposa Mambo with the yellow butterfly, roja (red) when he dances La Rumba Rosa with the red roses, and purpura (purple) when he dances El Tulipan Tango with the purple tulips. Life is exciting now Carlos, the multi-colored chameleon dances all over the limb, singing loudly, "Life is exciting. Life is Fun. When you're out on a limb; out in the Sun." He draws the attention of his friends back at the trunk. They tell him he better stop that nonsense or he might get caught and fried in a tortilla. But, that doesn't stop Carlos for very long. He heads back out to the limb. On the way, he makes a new friend, Carmelita who also loves to dance. She joins Carlos out on the limb until they get captured in a glass jar by a hiker. Will they get fried in a tortilla? No worry, the hiker has big plans for them. They are released into his beautiful backyard garden where they will entertain and enchant the whole neighborhood with their unique dance routines.Children easily learn new words in Spanish and English as they simultaneously develop movement agility and an appreciation of literature. Developmental biologist/educator, Charles Piaget's research showed that movement is a central part of the learning experience. With my knowledge as dancer and librarian, I have incorporated creative movement with early literacy skills to entertain and develop whole children. This is also a concept book that focuses on learning colors, nouns, and verbs for ages 1-6.Two more books in the series will be published soon.

In this potpourri of humorous, sometimes outrageous episodes involving actors, travelers, storytellers, madmen, hikers, hippies, flappers, boyfriends, cookies, castles, and credit cards, good intentions backfire. In The Livin' Doll, a dramatic senior lady joyfully entertains and engages a young girl, reliving her years as an actress, until she has a coiffure malfunction. Sixth grade boys believe they are too old for stories until the Storyteller turns into a witch with a fearsome cackle. Hippie Girls searching for Paradise in Hawaii instead meet madmen and steep inclines. A flapper generously trims the neckline of her dress and becomes Like Clara, the "It Girl" to catch a good-lookin' man at a dance, who turns out to be a mama's boy. An old woman goes in search of an elusive Almond Cookie in Chinatown, like the one she had 20 years ago and forgets where she parked her car. An elderly conscientious gent faces insomnia and unsympathetic groans from his dog as he tries to resolve the case of his compromised credit card. All the stories are based on true experiences. Don't say I didn't warn you...
