Rising Moon Adventures {Blogmania Sponsor}

What Rising Moon Adventures owner has to say… I started drawing my first picture book, an ABC book, when I was pregnant with my oldest child in 1999. She, and my son have been the inspiration for everything I have created. I know that they have loved the flannel board stories and games I have created for them. Because of the happiness my stories have brought to them, I decided to share them with others. All my stories are hand drawn, scanned into my computer, colored then printed onto transfer paper, which I then iron onto felt. Because of how they are put together, they are very durable. They can even be handwashed with a gentle detergent. I have a large selection of flannel board stories that include fables and fairy tales, songs, nursery rhymes, and...
