Day 30: Look a Book!

Guess what! One month in to Project 365!

Yes, that's right - we made it through the first 30 days!

Ever heard of the book: The Very Hungry Caterpillar?

Odds are, you have. Eric Carle is a really neat Childrens' book illustrator and sometimes an author. His pictures are created using almost solely tissue paper, by layering it to achieve the desired color and texture.

But even neater then that, is a project called Kohl's Cares.

Kohl's Cares is a project that is involved with Kids' education and health, breast cancer awareness and support, and advancing environmental solutions.


If you go to Kohl's they have stands set up, with 4 different childrens' books and matching stuffed animals. In December, they featured Dr. Seuss. We managed to snag How the Grinch Stole Christmas and the grinch stuffed animal. Each book and animal is only $5!

Featured now is Eric Carle books. I got two of them, but there are two others as well as the stuffed animals. And let me just say - the tortoise is adorable!

So anyways - you can read more about it here (click the word here)

Also, you can purchase these guys right here (click the word here).

Just thought I'd mention this - because most of you have kids and its a great, cheap way to build up your library for them while supporting a good cause! Noah absolutely loves the Tortoise book and makes me read it every night!
