Welcome back, my dear friends!
Hooray – it’s almost
THANKSGIVING DAY!!
I hope all of you are counting your BLESSINGS too, just like Oma!
I certainly count each & every one of YOU as my very favorites.

Oma loves Halloween!
And so does her magical-golden-dog Helen, too.
Because the best part of Halloween is the “dressing-up” we get to do!
A long long time ago, before I was ever an Oma, I use to travel to local elementary schools and share story-time with students in their classrooms or their libraries.
Oma has always loved reading to groups of children and I am very grateful for the many invitations received throughout the years to spend time with my little-friends in their classrooms & schools.

It was so much fun!!

Hello my little (and not so little) friends!
I’m Oma!
And I am so glad you found me in my Reading Room!
My Reading Room is a place for us
to BE together,
to READ together,
and hopefully share a GIGGLE or two!
I do hope you will come to visit me here, often.
Be sure to bring a friend along too!
We will have so much fun when we’re together
and I will always share my hugs and blessings with you!
Our first story time together will be posted
very soon!
