Thanks for the entertainment! Look forward to meeting you on Saturday. 🙂

This is such a great video on what not to do! I was smiling and nodding because it was all so recognizable. Loved the actors. So funny all of the alliterative inanimate object mistakes, like the mop. I’m sending this video to everyone who asks me how to write a picture book or if I just a need a pick-me-up!
☺ haha thanks Hillary! Glad you found it useful as well as fun 🙂
