The day you all have been waiting for has finally arrived!

The Tale of Pirate Shishkabob is a delightful picture book that tells of the adventures of some very hungry pirates. Illustrated in vivid colored pencils, it even includes a recipe in the back so that you can make your own Piratey Shishkabobs when you’ve finished the story.

The illustrator is Leila Clemons, the sister of our very own Bard. To read more about it and to purchase a signed copy visit my web page: http://katielynndaniels.com/wordpress/b ... hishkabob/

Jordan Smith of Incredibooks caught wind of Pirate Shishkabob some weeks ago and had the privilege of pre-reading it. The review is up on Incredibooks now: http://incredibooks.com/2012/04/25/pirate-shishkabob/

Mine finally came in, without the mailman losing it. *shocking *

I like it, Katie. Very cute. The drawing are blended perfectly with the story, too. Leila worked off your words well.

Be careful of your thoughts; guard your mind, for your thoughts become words. Be guarded when you speak, for your words turn into action. Watch what you do, for your actions will become habits. Be wary of your habits, for they become your character. Pray over your character; strive to mold it to the image of Christ, because your character will shape your destiny.

Ideas can germinate from the smallest seeds. Collect those seeds, and let them grow in the back of your mind. You may be surprised by what finally blooms.

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you. Instead, He’s opening your hands to receive something better. The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.
