It's been a day or two since we did a Mo Willems book on the podcast (and you can believe I'm counting down the days until one of those Elephant & Piggie books turns 20). What absolutely kills me is that we did today's title in complete ignorance of the fact that it was recently adapted into an incredible looking stage production in D.C. with a Chicago-based theater company.... which just closed. Doggone it. This book is interesting for a number of reasons. First off, Mo Willems had already done a Pigeon book (square) and a Knuffle Bunny book (horizontal), but this marked his first vertical book. We discuss our future picture book Steampunk Monster, how Sam's got sass, baby Wild Things, and more.

In the spirit of the upcoming holidays we discussed some of the favorite books we enjoyed when we were kids and also titles we've given to our kids over the years.Books have played huge part in our lives. Some of my favorite memories were of our dad reading to us before bed. He is a gifted story teller and books in his hands always came to life. Likewise, my favorite time to spend with my kids is on the couch reading books. Over the years, we have read children's books in the every genre and I think the list we've compiled reaches across a wide range of ability and interest. We hope you'll find something you love here.Wifestyle Hustle is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a way for websites to earn advertising revenues by advertising and linking to Amazon.comFirst Hundred words https://amzn.to/3sGcZ1gFirst Hundred animals https://amzn.to/47WlGUjThe Very Hungry Caterpillar https://amzn.to/3R3uqlBBrown Bear Brown Bear https://amzn.to/3uj0GsaOh David!

Emma and Cole take a look at the 1925 novella Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and its 1953 film counterpart while completely ignoring the 3 adaptations that came in-between. Tune in to find out if diamonds really are a girl's best friend, why Marilyn Monroe should be allowed to commit murder, and what led to leading man and future husband Henry Spoffard being remade into a 10-year-old boy (hint: it's probably the Hays code). Content warnings for Gentlemen Prefer Blondes include a brief mention of sexual assault, getting stuck in a porthole, and the mortifying ordeal of hearing grown men called “Daddy” and “Piggie”. The articles Emma promised to put in the show notes are here: https://themarilynreport.com/2022/08/18/gentlemen-prefer-blondes-on-the-page-stage-and-screen/ https://igetakickoutofyou.me/2012/02/06/dresses-and-controversy-in-gentlemen-prefer-blondes/ You can find Emma on Twitter at @ematsca, Cole at @greedmammon, and the show at @UnSelectPod!

Extraordinary Lives Foundation - We provide Piggie Bear tool kits to help increase children's social emotional learning. The HUGS for Life Healing Center bridges the gap between medical professionals and approved holistic healers. Their mission is to improve children's mental health & wellness and support families by providing educational tools, resources and awareness events.Originally from New York, Mara James relocated to California with her husband and her three children in 2007. They established Dr. James's OBGYN practice, and for seven years, Mara managed the busyoce.Then, in 2014, Mara unexpectedly experienced a manic episode and was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Through her battle with mental health, many wellness professionals helped Mara heal and transform her life. Mara's experience—in addition to the experience of some of her close family members—has kindled in her a passion for forwarding the cause of children's mental health. She established the Extraordinary Lives Foundation and created Piggie Bear to promote mental health awareness and provide both children and their parents with the resources they need to pursue holistic wellness in any and all avenues available. Mara lives with her family in Orange County, California.Tune in for this sensible conversation at TalkRadio.nyc or watch the Facebook Livestream by clicking here.Show NotesSegment 1The segment begins with Mara discussing her story about what led her to create this foundation. After she experienced a manic episode, she was treated with medication and worked with therapists and psychiatrists to become better. She then experienced a moment of spiritual awakening and began to work with holistic healers to help her heal her inner wounded child. This inspired her towards holistic approaches toward healing.She then discusses the origins of piggy bear: she felt compelled to purchase a stuffed piggy bear while shopping one day. The piggie bear, in addition to an insight received during meditation, led her to realize that she should publish a children's book.Segment 2Mara discusses how her organization raises funds for Piggy bear kits which contain tools to help children cope and manage emotional health challenges. She describes children as empaths who often take on the feelings and states of minds of their parents. Mara remarks that children aren't often given the tools to manage ‘big emotions' and that the Piggie bear book helps children to master their emotions. Mara and Tommy then discuss the importance of holistic approaches to healing which need to be incorporated into everyday life.Segment 3Mara discusses the Hugs for Life Healing Center. She describes it as a space to bridge the gap between medical professionals and holistic healers. She tells a story about her son who was diagnosed with a few different conditions. She discusses his journey with different types of healing and how he has managed to maintain his wellness. She finally tells a story about an energetic chiropractor who is able to uncover and heal deeper spiritual issues that affect his clients.Segment 4Mara discusses her podcast called ‘Let's talk Wellness' which hosts conversations with different wellness practitioners. Her vision for Piggie bear is to have Piggy bear sold to Build-A-Bear and to have it be a part of Disney theme parks. She hopes to rent or to be donated a space for Hugs for Life Healing Center. She hopes to create a healing space through the center for children and celebrities who experience emotional pain. Her organization does monthly donations with organizations, homeless shelters and military families. The segment ends with a discussion about the interconnectedness between humans and the Universe.
