Happy Holidays! A Time for Family Traditions


Holidays are a time for get-togethers with family and friends and for passing on family traditions. Every year when we get out the decorations for our tree we are reminded of the time that each one was added to the collection. The glass ornament above hung on the family tree when Art was growing up and has now been passed on to our daughter Jennifer and her family. It is still being enjoyed three generations later!

With best wishes for a

 Happy Holiday

MY FRIEND FROM OUTER SPACE, NOW AVAILABLE IN SPANISH


My book, My Friend from Outer Space, has now been translated into Spanish and is available on Amazon. Mi Amiga del Espacio is available in both paperback and as a Kindle ebook.

With many thanks to my brother Tom Scheaffer, who for many years was a bilingual Spanish teacher in an elementary school in California, and to my daughter Jennifer Arnold and her husband Humberto Gutierrez Rivas, a native speaker from Chile.

Here is the description of the book in Spanish:

"Sherry es mi vecina. Ella dice que viene del espacio. No le creo."
Sherry y su amiga van al espacio en un cohete de cartón. ¿Realmente van al espacio? ¿O simplemente están fingiendo?
Este libro ilustrado es para niños de cinco a doce años.
Publicado originalmente en inglés con el título 
My Friend from Outer Space (Amazon, 2023).
Traducción por Thomas Scheaffer y Humberto Gutiérrez-Rivas.

CAROLINE SCHEAFFER ARNOLD now on Wikipedia.


With the help of my daughter Jennifer I now have an entry on Wikipedia. Here is the link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caroline_Scheaffer_Arnold

You can find the link if you search for Caroline Scheaffer Arnold. (The addition of my maiden/middle name is to distinguish me from the other Caroline Arnolds who are authors.)

Thank you, Jennifer!
