Book Review Tuesday: Fairy May

Fairy May dreams of one day becoming a tooth fairy but she struggles at school and always seems to get things wrong. With hard work and determination she prepares for her test. Will she realise her dream and become a tooth fairy?

Overall Thoughts:
The story is mostly about Fairy May and how she tires so hard to pass her fairy classes and test, but no matter what she does...she just can't get it right. However, I love how the story does cover the importance of taking care of your teeth. As the daughter of a retired dentist (my wonderful step-dad), I understand the importance of teaching children about this simple daily task. In Fairy May, children learn how important it is to take care of their teeth as Fairy May studies and practices these basic hygiene skills so she can pass her Tooth Fairy test.

I highly recommend this book due to all the hidden messages for children about hard work, not giving up and taking care of your teeth.

Guest Post: Tips on Writing Your Memoirs

Whether you have lived a rough life or had a silver spoon in your mouth, it is normal to want to write your memoirs. This is especially true if you are getting up into middle age or beyond. Otherwise, it could be a pretty short story. Assuming you are ready to put 40 years or more down on paper, here are some tips for maximizing the effect of your finished work. First of all, give yourself plenty of time for a project like this. You are going to remember things as you work through the memories that are freshest in your mind. For this reason, it makes sense to give yourself lots of time, even as much as a year or more. Hopefully, you have a supply of old photographs you will be going through at the same time. But even if you don't, you can dig out those memories that are buried within. A good place to start is with a general time line of your life.
