Smallfoot in theaters soon

Every once in a while I come across a movie that looks like it would just be fun. A great way to get a few laughs, perhaps shed a few tears, and just be able to escape the drama, stress, tensions, or routine of everyday life. SMALLFOOT looks like it might be one of those movies.

One of the songs from the soundtrack is called Wonderful Life, and you can get a sneak peek now on FACEBOOK

This press release is provided:

An adventure for all ages, with original music and an all-star cast, “SMALLFOOT” turns the Bigfoot legend upside down when a bright young Yeti finds something he thought didn’t exist—a human. News of this “smallfoot” throws the simple Yeti community into an uproar over what else might be out there in the big world beyond their snowy village, in an all new story about friendship, courage and the joy of discovery.

Zendaya (“Spider-Man: Homecoming”), Common (“Selma”), LeBron James (upcoming “Space Jam 2”), Gina Rodriguez (“Jane the Virgin”), Danny DeVito (“The Lorax”), Yara Shahidi (TV’s “Black-ish”), Ely Henry (TV’s “Justice League Action”), and Jimmy Tatro (“22 Jump Street”).

“Smallfoot” is directed by Karey Kirkpatrick, Annie Award-winning director of “Over the Hedge.” The film is produced by Bonne Radford (“Curious George”), Glenn Ficarra (“Storks,” “The is Us,”) and John Requa (“Storks,” “This is Us”). Serving as executive producers are Nicholas Stoller, Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, Jared Stern, Sergio Pablos, and Kirkpatrick. The creative team includes editor Peter Ettinger, and composer Heitor Pereira.

From Warner Bros. Pictures and Warner Animation Group, “Smallfoot” will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.

The Daily Question for You and Your Child

The Daily Question for You and Your Child: A 3-Year Spiritual Journey (Waterbrook, 2018) is one of those books that, depending on the child and the parent, will be a wonderful memory maker, or just another journal that gets started with enthusiasm, then there are a few days missed, then a couple of weeks, and eventually the book gets put on the shelf, and when it’s pulled out again you wonder where the time went.

            In theory it’s a great idea. Every day there is a question for your child to answer. And the next year and the year after the question is repeated. So 365 questions, discussed 3 times in as many years lead to a lot of parent child conversations. And since your child answers the question each year on the same page, it’s easy to see their progress.

            But in my experience, journals, like diets and gym memberships, seem like great ideas on January 1^st; but it doesn’t take long before the novelty wears off. And that’s when it’s just one schedule to consider.

            Having said that, some of the questions are cute, some are what’s going on in school or day care, and others have a spiritual bent to them. There is also a pocket on the inside of the front cover for a photo of the child either when you start the journal, or as he or she grows.

            Another use of this book might be as conversation starters at mealtime, especially if there are 2 or more children in the family. Sunday school or Christian school teachers might like to ask some of the questions at the beginning of class each week or day, and even in a public school setting some of the questions could be written on the board so the student could work during those first few minutes.

            I received this book as a member of the publisher’s launch team program, I was not required to write a positive review.
