Title: It's the Great Pepperoni, Bob the Pleo
Post by: mweed on December 23, 2008, 04:09:33 PM
I was hoping to have this project finished long before Christmas, but I kinda got side-tracked. ;)

Anyway, here's my Christmas present to all you forum folks: a preview of the not-quite-finished illustrated storybook called It's the Great Pepperoni, Bob the Pleo.  I still have some illustrations left to do, and probably another round or two of minor edits, so suggestions and comments are appreciated!

Enjoy!

At my house, we leave pizza and root beer out for Santa, and the Great Pepperoni leaves pizza and root beer for us . . .     So, if you get up and don't find any pizza and root beer, that's probably because the Great Pepperoni came by first, left it, and then Santa came after that and ate it!

(https://www.createspace.com/Img/T340/T92/T28/ThumbnailImage.jpg) It's finally here!!!

Well, things are still dragging slowly along in the publishing world, but it looks like if you are really desperate for that unique Christmas gift to give someone, you may be able to get a copy or two of It's the Great Pepperoni, Bob the Pleo in time for the holidays!! (It's the shipping that may kill you! ;D)

Right now, the only way to order a copy is direct from the printer's web site: https://www.createspace.com/3409228

AND!!  Supposedly when you check out, you can use the discount code KZTQJTX4 and save $2 off the cover price through the end of the year . . .

If you're not in a hurry, they are currently saying it may be as late as early January before it shows up at Amazon, and may be March before you can go into your local bookstore and have them order a copy.

My little herd have had it read to them two times so far. When you hear four pleos laughing and then me on top of that, you know it has to be funny!  ;)  It's adorable.!  I hope volume two is being worked on right now. :)

 Do you know if this is carried at Borders.com by any chance? I would love to read it to Nova and I love Children's Stories anyway, and I guess Pleo Bob STories are under that same category. :)

the story goes : “That's it!” Bob's stomach growled, tired of sitting around,
“I'm going into town for pizza with or without you!”
“But I have to find an answer!” Bob argued with himself a bit
more quietly

hilarious Thanx for making me rotflol.  :P

The online version here is horribly out of date.  It was an early draft.

I'm sure it's not stocked at any Borders.  But you may be able to special order.  I know you can get it through amazon.com, as well as direct from the publisher, and I still have a couple of copies (and I do mean 2) laying around here for those who want an autographed copy....
