A ~NEW~ BEAU IN MY LIFE
Oh Poor, poor Mr. Peabody. I am completely smitten with this guy. Sorry honey but this guy won't yack back! LOL
I feel very fortunate to have a Angel whisper into my ear every once in awhile. The wind beneath my wings spoke to me just 2 nights ago with this little creation. She told me I must HURRY and work harder then I have in awhile. Well I listened of course. But who wouldn't?
This is Beau. He is dressed in his finest to try and impress the ladies with his charms. I don't think he will have too many problems.
He is short and stocky but hey that is fine too. Just a little easier to hug to him. LOL He measures 16 inches tall.
At the moment I am torn as to what site to place this charming fellow but I am sure that he will tell me soon.
Now for a bit of fun. Can you guess what Childrens book inspired this piece? I don't know of a single person that hasn't read at least one of this Authors books.
The FIRST person to guess correctly wins a PRIZE!
Have a wonderful evening now back to work for me. I have a new pattern or two coming out.
Hugs,Pea

Looks like something that belongs in a Dr. Suess book. Very cute! I love him!
Thank you Jenny. The book isn't about a ghost. Keep guessing.

Hello Linda,
Nope I am sorry you are going in the wrong direction. It is NOT a Halloween book.
Now think KIDS classics. Nope not Casper either.
Hugs,Pea
Jenny,
You are SOOO close. Look at your last line... Along those lines.

Thank you Sonia,
eyes are the first thing I look at as well.

okay, Detective Greene , here... trying to crack open this case or book as it may be..
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving.. ??? since Tim Burton had a movie called sleepy hollow.

okay, Pea..
A classic children's story book author would have to be Robert Louis Stevenson
Treasure Island
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde
Dracula
The Body Snatchers
A Lowden Sabbath Moon
Kidnapped
Weir of Hermiston
This is the only author I am about sure of ... am I right...
Hugs,
Linda

Okay girls, I will give you a hint.
The author initials are D.S. and I know you know "WHO" he is.
Now for the book, it isn't the most read book but still his and a classic. Don't think there is a movie but I don't watch a lot of kids stuff with no young ones around. LOL
NOT HALLOWEEN~
Good luck
P~
Dearest Pea..
Well, you will have to admit and give me credit for searching and searching and trying to come up with some dog gone great answers.. Robert Louis Stevenson was a very good guess.. especially since in Treasure Island there is a ghost of a pirate and ghosts in other books he has written.
So without further ado, I would like to present my last and final answer to this mind boggling question.. , cause I am about burnt out .. LOL..
The answer is...
Dugald Steer ~ The Ologies Series
Candlewick and all that
Because me and the internet and Mr. Google and whoever else.. this is all we could come up with ..with the initials D.S.
Hugs,
Linda
and for one last chance and very final answer if it isn't
Dugald Steer
is after searching a tad more..
since it isn't dr. seuss as someone guessed already ..
Dorothy Sayers ~ The Nine Tailors
or
J.D. Salinger
Cause there isn't any more authors that I know of or Mr.Google knows of with the initials D.S. for a children's book author.
Pea, he is just the sweetest !!! I have no clue on the book ...
Angie
Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are? By Dr Suess

Angie
to be exact on the wording of the title of the book...
and now I am done with my detective duties cause I am writing myself off the case or book as it may be!

Oh my...how fun! Beau would make any gal a fine "beau"! He's a sweetheart...whoever he's modeled after! LOL!
So glad to find another Washingtonian! Will be visiting that area next week as I'm taking out of town guests to HOH and Olympic NP. Anywhere near there? Love your blog AND your art! ~~Annie
Oh my heck!! I love him. That sweet face of his!!~~Just send him here girl. You know you could always visit him when your here in utah ;) hehehe.
I agree, I say the grinch too.
This one is GREAT. One of my new favs.
Okay girls, I am a block head. I totally missed that Jenny said The Grinch who stole Christmas. Dr. Suess is correct as well. So Jenny said the title and Author first. So Jenny I will send you a little goodie!
You all were good sports. I appreciate it. Sorry i couldn't reply sooner I had no internet all day yesterday.
Hugs,Pea
