When Go Ask Mom, The World According to Gabriel Peters and The Gabriel Book of World Records is read, there is a theme throughout - of fun and combating bullies with brains.

I use the basis from my series to tell stories when visiting schools.

This video represents my storytelling and anti-bullying message when visiting schools.

Please help me spread the fun!

My son releases a new album

http://wearethearctic.bandcamp.com/album/to-the-big-river

Listen to the new album by my totally awesome son and his bandmates. My favorite is Ghosts. Then do me a favor (and yourself), go to itunes or amazon.com and buy the songs you like or the whole album. The album will only cost you $9.99 and it will be worth every penny. Come on for the price of a couple venti fraps at Starbucks you can support a band and get some groovy tunes!

Most importantly, if you enjoy what you hear, please help them spread the word. Share the post on your wall, twitter it if you twitter, review it at amazon and/or itunes. I only recommend this album because it is super good, not just because it is my son. Give it a listen!
