Shanny Pawtographing her book
	Inking Shanny's paw
	Applying the paw to the book.
Thanks Julie for the pictures.	Re-inking for the next book. Shanny is trying her best to give the illusion she is being tormented. What you don't see is how she jumps up and tries to get the book after we're done.

Shanny taking her book to the mailbox
	I always deliver it to the mailbox by hand...err mouth
	Walking to the mailbox with my book
	Mom taught me to sit at the end of the driveway where she then takes the book from me (I don't always give it up freely), and puts it in the mailbox.
