Introducing Fabulous Marie, a Girl with a Good Head on Her Shoulders Penelope Dyan

Everyone is fabulous, and we all have good heads on our shoulders. Some people lose their heads like Marie Antoinette, but you can have freedom and lots of things without losing your head. Read about our heroine, Marie, and find out why she decided to keep her head. Written and illustrated by award winning poet, writer and artist, Penelope Dyan, take a small peek into history and smile and laugh and have some fun with "Fabulous Marie, a Girl With A Good Head On Her Shoulders." As usual, Dyan mixes education with point of interest to encourage conversation, because communication is what you want with children and between children. And again, Dyan focuses on the family connection with Marie's love of being tucked into bed. Find out what Marie makes for her mother and all about all her fabulous things, and why she does not want to be a princess or a queen like Marie Antoinette. Penelope Dyan is the author of 'Surfer Girl,' winner of best teen book at both the 2008 New York Book Festival and the 2008 Hollywood Book Festival, and recognized by the Girls' Voices In Literature Database, Miami University, Florida. Dyan is also a former educator who has been published in 'Instructor Magazine,' in 'The Kindergartner,' and in 'Humpty Dumpty Children's Magazine,' as well as in several other national publications. So enjoy reading all about our fabulous Marie, and most importantly, remember we are all simply fabulous, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise!
