| Book Description | Pete the Popcorn is back--- and this time, he's talking about health! When new student, Pecky Popcorn, arrives at Popcorn Prep, she is targeted by schoolyard bully Piper Popcorn--- all because she's bigger than the other popcorns! Pete the Popcorn, along with his friend Patty, teach Pecky that being healthy is easier than she knows. Through a plan of PETE: Play, Eat, Think, Encourage, the popcorns become active and eat right! This book is totally inspired by a school visit conducted by authors Nick Rokicki and Joseph Kelley. There, they met Tyler, who was bullied because of his weight. Nick took this to heart and committed to becoming healthy himself--- losing 70 pounds! Through this book, he hopes to encourage families and children to join him! |
| About the Author | Nick Rokicki is quickly becoming a beloved name in the world of books for children. His first book, Pete the Popcorn, was released to rave reviews on February 29th, 2012. Why Leap Day? According to Nick, "this country needs to take a huge leap forward when it comes to bullying in our schools. Pete the Popcorn carries a message of children offering encouragement to each other on a daily basis. We believe that the answer to bullying is encouragement--- and this will start with the youngest of children." Nick has visited with over 100,000 children in 25 states, holding motivational assemblies centered around his book titles. Nick Rokicki is a proud product of public schools, having attended Washington Local Schools in Toledo, Ohio. After graduating from high school, he attended Specs Howard School of Media Arts in Southfield, Michigan, where he focused on communications. After completing this education, Rokicki worked at various television and radio stations throughout the midwest before spending nine years traveling the World and gaining inspiration for his collection of stories. "Currently, I'm very excited about the release of my newest book, PETE: Play, Eat, Think, Encourage. I've lost 70 pounds and I was inspired to do it through a child I met at a school visit. Now maybe I can inspire or encourage others to do the same," Rokicki said. Other titles in his collection include Clipper the Comet, which celebrates the American autoworker and family traditions. Casey and Callie Cupcake is a Frosted Fable About Being Fantastic Just the Way You Are. The story teaches kids to accept themselves and their friends for who they are on the inside--- and the story takes place inside of a real bakery, Cake in a Cup, a winner of Food Network's Cupcake Wars. Upcoming projects include middle-grade reader I'm Right Rita, the fantastical Ideaparnockolis and crossover book The Trashy Hootenanny. Learn more about Nick Rokicki at www.PeteThePopcorn.com |
