Moosey-Moose and Sleepy Bear Go To the Beach!

 

Hi Friends,

It’s my last day in California. It’s Sleepy Bear’s last day, too.

 

 

 

That means it’s time for me to say good bye to the beach.

 

 

 

 

 

But not before I go surfing!

This is my luckiest day so far! I met a real surfer. He was taking a break from “riding the waves” and “hanging ten”. That’s surfer talk.

 

 

 

 

I didn’t get to surf too much. Sleepy Bear was telling me to hurry. We had to get to the airport in time to catch our flight back home.

 

 

 

I’m going to miss the sunshine, and the sand, and the ocean, and the swimming pool, and the gelato, and the …. Wait a minute. We have gelato in Seattle! Ok, maybe I won’t miss the gelato.

Bye for now,

Moosey-Moose and Sleepy Bear

Hi Friends,

Guess who followed me to San Diego? Sleepy Bear! I had no idea. Did you know?

He said I was working so hard on my manuscript that he wanted to surprise me with a visit to California, too!

 

 

Then, he added to his surprise with gelato in La Jolla. La Jolla is on the beach and north of San Diego.

 

 

 

 

 

Sleepy Bear ordered two of my favoritest flavors. One is hazelnut because it has nuts in it. The other one is pistachio because it has nuts in it, too, and because it’s green!

 

 

 

 

 

After we shared our gelato we sat in the sunshine. It was hot, too.

 

 

 

 

This was a perfect day for me because I got to spend it with my bestest friend and AND eat gelato in the sun. Sleepy Bear is super cool!

Tomorrow we both fly home to Seattle. I’m going to miss the sunshine but I have to get home so I can send my manuscript to agents and editors. Sleepy Bear said he needs to get home to feed the birds for me.

Bye for now,

On the Set For the Yankees Show

 

Hi Friends,

Yesterday was a super fun day!

 

First, Kathleen took me to a restaurant for lunch. I grazed over a HUGE salad bowl. It had apple chips, those are on the top, and nuts, and lettuce and a whole bunch of other yummy stuff. Almost as good as a bowl full of GORP!

 

 

Then we went to the show. It’s about the baseball team called the Yankees. It takes place a million years ago. I think in the 1950s. Anyway, this is Kathleen’s friend, Francesca. She sings and dances in the show. I had fun watching her plus, she’s pretty.

 

That’s all for now. I have to take a nap. I might go to the show again tonight. Or, maybe I’ll go swimming again.

Bye for now,

Moosey-Moose Catches Some Sun By the Pool

Hi Friends,

Remember I told you I was taking a vacation? Well. I’M HERE!

My reading and writing teacher, Kathleen, has a friend who lives in San Diego.

Her friend has a pool in her backyard.

I’m Kathleen’s friend so I get to use her friend’s pool.

That’s super cool for me!

 

 

Today, I plan to do more relaxing in the pool. Then I’m going to a show tonight. Kathleen’s friend is in a theater production.

Check back later and I’ll give you an update on my day.

Bye for now,

Moosey-Moose

Moosey-Moose Finished His Manuscript

Hi Friends,

 

I finished my manuscript! I’m super excited!!

Kathleen said I need to write my query letters and research agents and editors. She said not everyone will want to publish a children’s book so I have to choose which ones to send my manuscript to.

 

 

I don’t understand why everyone doesn’t want to publish my book. It has adventure, excitement, I make new friends, and I even put in some sad parts. Oh, and Sleepy Bear is in it, too. But don’t tell him. I want it to be a surprise when he reads my book for the first time.

Kathleen said she is going to put the first two chapters on her website. I’ll let you know when so you can read them.

I’m going to take a little vacation to someplace sunny. It’s near the beach. Can you guess where I’m going? I leave on Thursday. When I return, back to the query letters!

Bye for now,

Moosey-Moose
