Schedule for Yvonne Perry's Blog Tour

Join me, Yvonne Perry, as I tour the Internet from November 20 to December 19 to share my latest book, The Sid Series ~ A Collection of Holistic Stories for Children.

The Sid Series is a collection of body-mind-spirit stories that focus on life skills such as overcoming fear, helping others, being true to one’s self, following inner guidance, caring for the body, having self-worth, appreciating diversity, dealing with change, accepting death, being environmentally conscious, and using spiritual gifts.
