Mike Nawrocki (VeggieTales, 3-2-1 Penguins) & the new Dead Sea Squirrels books

VeggieTales co-creator (and "very good friend" of Larry The Cucumber) Mike Nawrocki joins the show today. Nawrocki, who also co-created the "3-2-1 Penguins" series, has a new series for younger readers (generally 1st thru 5th grade) entitled "The Dead Sea Squirrels."The Squirrels books have been released in pairs the past year or two, including the latest couple, "Tree-mendous Trouble" (book 5) and "Whirly Squirrelies" (book 6). An extremely creative writer and producer, Nawrocki's goal for his work historically is to impart one main thought or nugget of truth for the reader (or viewer). Tree-mendous Trouble revolves around Matthew 5:7: "God blesses those who are merciful, for they will be shown mercy." Whirly Squirrelies is based on Proverbs 16:32: "Better to be patient than powerful; better to have self-control than to conquer a city."Starting Monday, be on the lookout for your opportunity to win one of the six "Dead Sea Squirrels" books and qualify to win a complete set of all 6! Details and your opportunity to enter will be posted at wfil.com and shared on AM 560 WFIL :).We cap the show off with our standard "Now THAT'S Punny" segment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
