We ARE NOT Raising Our Prices!

Chloe and I keep hearing the news people talk about something called inflation. We asked Mom and Dad what it meant. "Well, Woody," Dad answered, "it means the cost of things we buy keep getting inflated - or bigger. So if prices increase one place, they usually increase other places too. That means everyone has to raise their prices to have enough money to pay for things."  

Our family talked about it and decided that with the exception of the stand alone family reading night and also the library visit, (which are both the same price), we would not raise our prices for the 2022-23 school year. Therefore, our all day school visits, half day visits, all day school visits and family night will not increase!

Kentucky Greetings! My name is Dogwood but my friends call me Woody. I'm a black and tan miniature dachshund, or wiener dog, from Kentucky - making me Woody, The Kentucky Wiener! My wiener dog sister, Chloe, along with my human mom and dad, spend our days in schools, libraries, churches, and other venues presenting my signature program Woody's Five Ways to be Successful and also Woody's Five Ways to Improve Writing. We have spoken throughout the southeast, although the majority of time is spent in the Bluegrass State. In fact, we have spoken in 117 of Kentucky's 120 counties. We would love to visit your organization and spread our message. Anything is possible but you have to...

APRIL CELEBRATES OUR LIBRARIANS!

Woody on Broadway,.

 April - the fourth month of the year. It starts out with a bang with April Fool's Day! Chloe and I love trying to trick Mom and Dad! I guess that's why April is National Humor Month. It's also National Frog Month, National Card and Letter Wroting Month, and National Keep America Beautiful Month.
As far as specific days in the month of April, we have Children's Book Day (2nd), School Librarian Day (4th), National Library Workers Day (11th), National Pet Day (11th) National Librarian Day (14th), High Five Day (20th), Tell a Story Day (27th), and National Poetry Reading Day (28th). Those are just a small sample of holidays! When we read the list of holidays we noticed a theme - librarians and reading. We couldn't do our job without all the great libraries and all the incredible school and public librarians. If you haven't visited your local public library, make a goal to visit this month. You will love it. 

 It's all part of...
Working and Dreaming like a BIG DOG!
