Like Tales from the Toy Store, these stories are inspired by the same stories that I told my boys when they were young. The characters are real to me because these are toys that I live with every day and whose stories I&#8217;ve been telling for years. If you follow my Instagram (@lifewithkatie), you&#8217;ll see that I&#8217;ve been posting toy pictures. These are all toys that live at my house and who have a chance of being in the next book. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #282828; font-family: 'Maison Neue Book', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 0.6rem; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"2p6f5\" data-offset-key=\"cn1m-0-0\">\n<div style=\"border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;\" data-offset-key=\"cn1m-0-0\"><span style=\"border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;\" data-offset-key=\"cn1m-0-0\">Please, if you&#8217;ve been considering backing, head on over and do so. It would mean the world to me and it&#8217;s the opportunity to get this book into the hands of a child whose imagination may spark the next big invention or to help them get through a rough time&#8230;words have power and I hope that my stories can inspire the next generation of kids to imagine and do great things.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #282828; font-family: 'Maison Neue Book', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 0.6rem; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"2p6f5\" data-offset-key=\"40tcp-0-0\">\n<div style=\"border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;\" data-offset-key=\"40tcp-0-0\"><span style=\"border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;\" data-offset-key=\"40tcp-0-0\">To check it out, go to: <\/span><a style=\"border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: #028858; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/katrinaroets\/back-to-the-toy-store-short-stories-for-kids\"><span style=\"border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;\" data-offset-key=\"40tcp-1-0\">https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/katrinaroets\/back-to-the-toy-store-short-stories-for-kids<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m excited to say that the book has funded, but we have a long way to go.
