I know, I know, you don't want me to go see the ocean....

Boy you owls are very protective of me and I thank you.... but I have a dream to see the big blue ocean.....
And you can see I have my trusty life preserver around me....
I must go.....
Ok I'll take Bingo with me but he can only take me part way ......
Bingo has been to the ocean and he can help me....
Let's go.... I can smell the ocean air now.....
Look who I found after Bingo left, a sweet little Saw Whet owl. He said he has flown over the ocean many times....
Yep I have my life preserver and am ready to jump in the ocean.....
I'm here, finally here! And this crow lives near the ocean....
I may be just a little mouse but I can swim!
And my dream is about to come true....
Good-bye.... and hello my great big blue ocean! SPLASH! Weeeeeee this is fun!

Zima the Winter Fairy By Barby Anderson (SOLD) link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270787178741&ssPageName=STRK:MES
One day the great "Snow Owl" from above flew down to see the "Winter Fairy".....
He said there was much unrest in the world and many were suffering from extreme heat....
The wee fairy and owl put their heads together..... to find a way to help....
The fairy had a magical wand that sparkled like a diamond.....
She knew great things could come from her little wand....
All they needed to do was fly all over the world and wave her wand .... and her wand would bring cool breezes to all in need.....
The "Snow Owl" and fairy flew half way around the world..... waving her wand and icy breezes would follow....
After awhile her tiny wings could no longer fly from all the miles behind them....
But she knew she was needed and so.....
The great "Snow Owl" lifted her onto his soft back and off they flew...... and flew..... waving her wand all the way.
The great owl finally brought her home to the high mountain top up north.... how happy she was that so many had a bit of winter in the hot summer days.....
So when you feel a cool breeze waft by.... look above and you may see a wee fairy waving her wand on the wing of a great white owl!
The owl was by Helen Priem!

New BLUE BOOK with Barby Anderson and Helen Priem's art inside (NOW AVAILABLE ON LULU.COM)
Well, I had to re-publish the brown book I posted earlier because the publisher had a template problem. I made it blue this time and love the new color. Helen's name is on the book because her art is all through the book with my critters and I wanted it on this one! Humble Helen might say differently but since I published it I got my way! ;) There are 93 photos in the book so I included just a few on here. Here is the link to where our book is sold:

My new Photo Book plus Poems! (For Sale on Lulu.com)
This is my new photo poem book that I created with Helen Priem's and my art. I will be posting new photos of this book soon as I needed to change the color of the book and template due to a printing error by the publisher. Helen was kind enough to let me add her name to this new book. Here is the new link to the blue photo book:
The photo book was published for my grandchildren and for Helen's family. Art by Barby Anderson and Helen Priem.
I am so excited about this photo book with rhymes. I always wanted a book for my grandchildren and now I created one. Helen Priem was so lovely to allow me to use her owls, Gnomes, Pixie doll, large squirrel and crow in this book. I hope my grandkids will enjoy reading this book and seeing the photos that Grammy and Helen created!
Thank you Liz Stevens for allowing me to use your dear cottages in my book!
My new Photo Book! (For Sale on Lulu.com)
The cover will be different and in blue due to a print error by the publisher.
