Don't forget Danny's and Nicker's birthday!!! Send your cards to them at Nicker Stories, 18521 E. Queen Creek Rd., Suite 105, #603, Queen Creek, AZ, 85142. HURRY. Their birthday is February 12!

In Alberta, Canada is something unique. It's world's largest known beaver dam - so large that it can be seen from outer space. It's already more than a half-mile wide (about the length of 8 football fields) and is still growing.

IT'S NATIONAL KAZOO DAY!!! I hope you celebrated with us.
There is also a reminder and an announcement. Did you remember that February 12 is the birthday for both Danny and Nicker? Well, I decided to have another contest. All you Nickaroos should send them a birthday card. Get one, but even better, make one! (You can also go to Your Page and get one of those drawings.) I don't know what the prize will be yet, but it will be something special.
So, get out your paper, crayons, paints, whatever you wish. Have some fun - and make a boy and a sea dragon smile.

HEY HEY HEY!!! There is a lot going on over the next few days. The new issue is up - which you know because you're here. It continues the birthday idea we began back in December. February is the birthday or Danny, Nicker and ... PAUL BUNYAN! Meanwhile, don't forget that Saturday is National Kazoo Day. Get yer kazoos and join in with the rest of us to have some fun!

Winter

I'm not sure where this came from, but it's so clever I wanted to share it. It shows someone's idea to prove that they got "two feet of snow."

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
It's going to be an exciting year. We hope to publish the first Nicker Stories book and its companion coloring book soon, and have started work on some others. Be sure to check back for the latest news. And tell all your friends to visit the website. There will be new stories coming.
Meanwhile, for New Year's Day I made some special molasses bread rolls. BIG ones. Just one will both of your hands together. Danny's mother ate two right from the oven and said that if they were any better, they would be dessert.
Hmmm - maybe I should put the secret recipe in "Lunch With Nicker?" What do you think?
