New! The Laurie Robbins Show, WVET, Ch. 10, 1954/55 (Audio CD)
Laurie Robbins was a TV celebrity in the 1950's! This is a CD of songs recently recovered and digitized from the original video footage reels of her 1954 live television show! This captivating CD includes over 40 song tracks and several nostalgic commercials that truly take you back in time, One of the ad spots is for the (new) polio vaccine! One snippet talks about "Eastman Color" photographs (perhaps a household name back then for color produced by Eastman Kodak). Air raid public service announcements and "stop communism" ads are quite chilling. Of course the great majority of the CD is Laurie playing the piano and singing in a very jazzy style live on the set of her Rochester, NY television show. The songs have spunk, sass, and a few are even risque for that time, but this was The Glamorous 50's where breathy singing was the in thing. If you or someone you know wants to relive that era (America-strong, proud and free), through an audio snapshot in time, this would make a great gift!

Petey and the Mean Pirates
Petey and the Mean Pirates is a delightful children's book that appeals to both kids and parents, alike. It was written to speak to the common childhood belief that all pirates have to be rough and tough and aggressive (and that "little pirates" can sometimes act out that way at home, school, or daycare). Well, Petey is different... Join Petey as he wins over the hearts of the mean pirates (and even a few hungry sharks) using something other than swords, angry words, and bullying.

Excerpt from the back cover: "Petey is nice. He's really very nice. Then why is a nice kid like him living aboard a ship full of mean pirates? Petey warms others with his words and smile. He spreads this way of living to others - even to a bunch of mean and swashbuckling pirates who think the riches of life can be found in a treasure chest. Brought to life by the wonderfully talented illustrator, J.C. Mull, Petey adds color to their lives with his way - he is exactly where he should be."

Let your child experience how Petey ends up the hero in this fun pirate story complete with hungry sharks...and even an ice cream social! Also included in this pirate book is a vocabulary section for the bigger words found in the story, as well as a section dedicated to discussion with thought provoking questions for both teachers and parents to ask.
