Dana Perri - Think…then Jump™
In cooperation with Friends for Life Foundation, children's author DANA L. PERRI spoke about and signed her award-winning picture book, The Grumpy Frog, at the Book Revue in Huntington.


When Dana created the Think…then Jump™ concept, she knew it would be ideal for her book series, but soon came to realize that it had more meaning. For her, Think…then Jump™ is a attitude, a mantra for how to live fully and gratefully. She believes it is important to take action but equally important to be thoughtful in those actions.
 It seems like such a simple idea but how many of us actually take a moment to think about what we say and do. In this ever rapid, fast-paced world of texting, Instant messaging, twitter and all the rest, we find ourselves typing in, shouting out and acting out before we think of our behavior.
 We chase our tails trying to get to a better place, only to end up back where we started. Dana’s goal with Think…then Jump™ is to slow people down just enough so we think first; then we will naturally do the right thing.

The book series focuses on a little frog who often jumps too quickly and doesn’t always make thoughtful decisions. With the help of his wise bird friend, Rana the Frog learns to Think…then Jump™. The series is geared to children ages 3-9, yet the concept is for young and old alike.
