Christmas is coming, and everybody’s excited! They’re out buying decorations, gift bags, food, wrapping paper, Santa Claus apparel, and arguably the most important part... presents! The list goes on and on, right? Buying all these things can be fun and rewarding at first, but doing so can also harm the environment, sometimes in ways we can’t even see.
In the book “The Sparkle Box” a boy named Sam is very excited when he notices something shiny on the mantel. His mother tells him that the special gift is called a sparkle box and they will all open it together later, but she and Sam’s dad must fill it first.
Sam becomes more curious about what’s inside the sparkle box. As Sam and his parents do things to help people in need and the homeless, it makes Sam wonder more and more about what could be inside the box.
"DOG MAN! Part dog, part man, ALL HERO!" Dog Man is one of the best selling series written by Dav Pilkey. The book is so good that it's already a musical and soon it will be a full length feature film. “Dog Man: The Musical” will be traveling all over the U.S., to 18 states and Canada over the course of eight months—including a stop in Tucson.
