Danny The Dragon DREAMS-CD with classical music

I am VERY pleased to share that the full Mastering of Danny The Dragon DREAMS Cd has been fully Mastered and the CD cover is in design work as I type away here. Thank you Tom Morris at Morrissound Recording in Tampa, Florida! This is an amazing CD with my book being read by an extremely talented vocal-artist followed by a well chosen compilation of 10 original classical songs, composed by up and coming composers. This CD is for ANYONE and everyone, all ages. All the profits to this CD are going to a Cause that is very dear to my heart and I will be announcing the CAUSE, broadly and soon. All the legal mumbo-jumbo is just about totally complete first. All the composers on this CD will be announced and broadly promoted, so I ask you to support the Cause and the Artists once we release the details. Each composer currently has beautiful credits for movie and television. More support to them will only help their career and this Cause. When I am given the OK to lift the curtain, I will be sharing it all! Exciting! Tina

Author Tina Turbin donates her delightful storybook towards children's book restoration efforts.

Victoria, Australia book supplies were devastated by the wildfires of February 2009. As a result, a massive, international effort was undertaken to re-build the children's book collections in the local schools and libraries, and a very worthy effort it has proven to be. We are proud to announce that the children in the area will have the opportunity to get to know Danny and his traveling companion Skipper in the first book in the series: Danny the Dragon Meets Jimmy. Author Tina Turbin hopes that the book sparks the imaginations of the local children in the same way that it has done here in the States.

Humanitarian efforts: Make a difference by impacting others

Charitable contributions and volunteer work for worthy organizations are some of the most beneficial actions that one can do for society. To know that you're doing something for a worthy cause and putting your heart into it is such an important and admirable quality. What are some of your favorite charities?

Danny the Dragon, Tampa Bay Rays and local libraries

There has been so much happening that I didn't mention the wonderful events that Danny the Dragon http://DannytheDragon.com participated in throughout the summer, as part of the Pinellas Libraries "Reading with the Rays" program, sponsored by the Tampa Bay Rays baseball team. What a joy and what smiles we brought to children's faces through the Danny the Dragon images and books on display. I have to say that the library is such a magical place for children. Have you taken your child to the library lately? While there, be sure to inquire about Danny the Dragon Meets Jimmy. Let your librarian know to stock a supply, and perhaps I can pay a visit for a "live" reading one day soon.

Pinellas Park Public Library ? Danny the Dragon was a resounding success!

I am over-joyed with the tremendous response that we received at the Pinellas Park library book reading of "Danny the Dragon Meets Jimmy." More than 90 guests were in attendance (mostly children of course) and what an interactive group – we even did an arts and crafts activity and we'll be expanding this with a children's drawing contest very soon!
