SILVER MEDAL AWARD WINNER


I 'm so proud of my lovely spouse, the Education Tipster; Kathy Stemke. Her charming children's book: “Sh Sh Sh Let the Baby Sleep has just garnered another award. She won a silver award in the 2012 children's literary classic awards.Yes, this beautifully illustrated tome, perfect for young boys who have just acquired a younger sibling, or any child, has been recognized for its educative value.

I already knew Miss Kathy had great teacher skills so this award validates that. When we travel to schools and libraries, the little children get the biggest thrill from her readings. I know because while helping miss Kathy set up and such, little ones exuperantly exclaim “This is fun”. The gleam in their eyes is so rewarding. I was kneeling on the floor retrieving kinetic exercise placards and a little girl kissed my arm. It was so sweet. The librarians and first-grade teachers love “Sh Sh Sh Let the Baby Sleep” and all enjoy our visits immensely.

I would urge everyone to take a look at this precious book and perhaps make it a part of your personal library.

Please join me in congratulating miss Kathy for the silver award. (Hearty applause) Well done sweetheart.

How wonderful! You must be so proud, and rightfully so. Transitions in the family can be so hard for little ones to understand. Miss Kathy is a very wise and lovely woman!
