celebrate

I wrote this for my Great-Niece, Ravenna, who will be 3 years old in a couple of weeks. She is flying in from Alaska to celebrate her birthday. I am also making a Lion doll with a pocket for a chicken doll. I will be sending this story to the printer today.


Chicken and LionChicken likes to sing.


Do you like to sing?


Lion likes to dance.

Do you like to dance?


Sometimes Chicken sings for Lion.

Sometimes Lion dances for Chicken.



Can you sing for Chicken and Lion?
Can you dance for Lion and Chicken?


Sometimes Chicken and Lion will put on a show for their friends.


Can you name their friends?

Are you and Chicken and Lion's friend?

The End.

That is really awesome...one of the greatest gifts we have as artists is the ability to create things for others...and to entertain ourselves in long boring meetings. Hope you show pics of the stuffed critters when they are done!
