Thank you Maryland Library Association. I'm honored.
So is Seymour. Did I mention, Whoo hoo?

Whoo-hoo!

Here are some animated crabs based on children's art from my MermaidMary.com website. I am sure Mary Margaret will not mind lending them to Seymour's Blue Crab celebration. Let's see if they stay animated on blogspot.




Okay, these crabs are really red crabs on a blue background, but I love their expressions. If you need a blue crab, here is the front of the brochure for the Maryland Blue Crab Young Reader Award (however the surfing crab looks a little greenish blue to me!)

Thanks again to the Maryland Library Association for recognizing Seymour.
