This week I attended the craft fair in Wellston, Oklahoma held at the Assembly of God Church. The day started out good except I had to leave early due to sickness . However, the craft fair was a success. I enjoyed visiting with all the great customers. Many children were in attendance at the craft fair with their parents just enjoying the fun day. Children make you feel young again with their great smiles. It was also good to see parents coming to the table telling me how their child really loves reading . I was so happy to hear this since reading is so important. It was good to hear that many children were going to the library and reading at home . Some parents were even reading at home with their children. To be better in reading, one has to practice just like you would riding a bike or any new adventure. I have heard it said many times, “Practice makes Perfect”. I agree with this statement. I will endeavor to make it my mission to encourage literacy . On to take a break from book events to switching roles as an Oklahoma Commissioner hosting a booth for the Clan McRae for the upcoming Oklahoma Highland Festival at Choctaw Creek Park in Choctaw, Oklahoma October 11-13th. This is always a fun and interactive event with lots of vendors, athletic events, celebrations, clan events, and much much more for adults and children to participate in. Next event on my agenda after that weekend is going to Brace Books in Ponca City , Oklahoma October 19th, 2024 for reading to children and a book signing table. This was one of the stores selling “Nicoli Picoli” that was in the Top 10 Children’s Fiction Book with lots of sells in March 2024 as reported to Tulsa World by this store and other independent bookstores in Oklahoma. Stay tuned for Book 11 which will be released this month.
