Fun Freetime: January Story Monsters Ink

Jake Marcionette started writing in elementary school. Not because he wanted to, but because his mom made him as part of her “wicked plot to ruin Jake’s chances of a carefree and fun summer.” The now 15-year-old holds the distinction of being the youngest fiction author to make the New York Times bestseller list. How did he do that?! Find out inside.

Also in this issue, health and wellness expert Ellen Barrett encourages us to take a holistic approach to our health in 2016, author and illustrator Michael Dooling tells us about his newest book (and we really dig it), and Christine Ieronimo tells us how a special little girl changed her life forever.

Our guest contributor this month is award-winning author Maggie van Galen, who reminds us that there are still some great “old fashioned” ways to keep the young ones busy while having fun and maybe even learning something at the same time.
