Endorsements“I am delighted to enthusiastically recommend authors Steffanie and Richard Lorig, creators of the new children’s book Such a Silly Baby! (Chronicle Books, $15.99, ISBN: 9780811851343). Steffanie and Richard were guests for our weekly Wednesday storytime at our Barnes & Noble Booksellers here in Tucson, Arizona, and they were wonderful! Their book is unique, with a fast-moving, rhyming story and colorful, interesting illustrations by Amanda Shepherd.
In addition, a portion of the proceeds from the sale of their book is donated to Art with Heart, a non-profit organization, founded and directed by Steffanie, that uses her therapy-based activity books – Oodles of Doodles for Your Noodle, Magnificent Marvelous Me and Chill & Spill (published by Art with Heart Press) – to help kids in crisis. So far, over 35,000 children have been helped all across North America through the many excellent programs of Steffanie’s organization and through her books. Therefore, I am thrilled to be able to recommend Steffanie and Richard Lorig for storytimes in bookstores, libraries, hospitals, book fairs and book festivals, and schools anywhere. I know you will be as thrilled with them as I was!” Gene Durfey |

Steffanie and Richard were excellent as they kept the children (and the adults) absorbed and involved when they read their book, adding a series of hand motions as the story progressed, and afterward, they made friend after friend as they autographed books for those in attendance.
