Om Baby book update


I wanted to get a nice shot of Octavius wearing his Om Baby shoes from zazzle and Om Baby t-shirt from cafe press and WOW! I got the best photo ever! He looks sooooo adorable!!!!

We are enjoying our time in New Zealand. Octavius just turned two and had a wonderful birthday surrounded by his NZ family and friends.

I would like to update everyone about my book...
Om Baby books will be available this March, 2010. Just in time for Earth day!

I apologize that it has taken this long but I ran into some bumps along the way. It is a challenge to make a children's book with recycled paper. I was diligent and steadfast about making the highest quality book possible, greenest book possible, and with a printer I could trust and have a good working relationship with.
Good things come to those who do not give up, or give in!

The company I am working with has done some work for Hay House publishing.
The quality is beautiful and I love working with them.

The contents of Om Baby are printed with soy based inks on paper
from responsibly managed forests and contain 25% post-consumer recycled fiber.
And the best news of all...."Om Baby plants trees!"
A tree will be planted for each Om Baby book made by a company called Eco Libris.

Om Baby, Child of the Universe is 40 pages. Hard cover. Full color illustrations.
8.5 by 8.5 inches square.

It is going to be beautiful!
I am sooooooo excited.

All the best,
Schamet

  2. I am still reading to kids and passing on books from one to another. This next weekend my oldest and dearest friend is coming to visit. (We met when we were 10 years old.) She has a lil lady of her own now and I am going to give them the book Om Baby-Child of the Universe. Now this is not your typical sweet baby child book. No this is a bright colorful book looking at the metaphysical world through a child's eye. We see how we can all share this world loving each other and caring for that which is around us. And isn't that what we all really wish for. So with child like faith and belief Om Baby sees life around him is filled with love, truth and unity. What a positive message to give.
