You donate a book. The parent or g’parent reads it. A recording is sent along with the book for the child to enjoy.

When  I decided to post my kids’ street art, I wanted to dedicate the first post to her very worthy project. The Picture Book Pass It On Logo is at the bottom of this post & will take you to all of the info.

I’m excited for 2 reasons.

1. I have a lot of outdoor art for children. Some is done by children. I want to post a lot of this art over the next few weeks.

Between you & me, I’m terrified! 

Camants #1

See what I mean! They’re giant termites. Or, are they ants?

Camants #8

Just checking! After all, I thought a snake was a lizard & storks were seagulls.

Camants #2

Whatever they are, they are all over my home!

Camants #4

Nowhere is safe!

Camants #5

See what I mean!

Camants #6

Help!

I found this mural when it had just been started. It’s done now. It’s 2 murals really. 1 on a warehouse, the other on the home beside it.
