From the Author One of the questions I am most frequently asked is how I came up with the idea to put together this book. I shared in a recent interview, "The 99 sayings in the book are 'Christopherisms'. I originally started posting the Christopherisms as my Facebook status. My friends and family got a big kick out of them. After I posted the Christopherism (#1 in the book), I received a phone call from the Uncle who I dedicated the first edition to. He basically told me that he hoped I was keeping a record of the Christopherisms. He said I should put them in a book. At that point I was already putting them in a Word document but I had no other intentions at the time."At that time The Christopher Chronicles was not on my radar. When I started a new Word document with what Christopher was coming up with from Age 6, he seemed to be on a roll. I had a pad of paper in my car, in my purse, in the bathroom, at my beside - you name it. I began to think, "I need to do something with the first book." It was already written. I would daydream about a cover while I had my editor reviewing the contents of the book. When I found my illustrator she practically read my mind, and there was no turning back.I look forward to the Age 6 edition in the near future. Today I still share Christopherisms in my Facebook status. They are more mature but still funny and thoughtful. If you are wondering who this book is for - it is for ANYONE. It's a coffee table/bedside book. This would be a great gift for:mothersfathersbaby showersPastorsGrandparentsSunday/school teachersAnyone who needs a bright spot in their day - just because.  Product Description Formatted for Kindle, this is the second edition of the first book in the series of The Christopher Chronicles (TCC). This book includes the original 99 "Christopherisms" (affectionately named by Facebook friends) from Age 5. This book also includes a sampling of Christopherisms from Age 6, and more! In the words of my editor, "This book is for every adult who has ever been left speechless by a child and had to hold back their laughter." From the Back Cover "This book is for every adult who has ever been left speechless by a child and had to hold back their laughter." ~Antoinette Dickson "Lighthearted and easy to read, it is peppered with more than a modicum of wit, and I guarantee you're going to chuckle or even laugh out loud (more than once)." ~Rose M.
