 |
|
| In Growing Up With Loukoumi, a lamb named Loukoumi struggles with what she wants to be when she grows up. She considers becoming a firefighter, a judge or a doctor. As she walks along, she encounters several friends including Gus the bear, Fistiki the cat, Dean the dog and Marika the monkey. Each friend explains to Loukoumi that she can be whatever her heart desires. If she wants to be a singing star, a policeman or even an Oscar winning actress, then she can do it! The key is that she must always believe in herself, stay positive and work hard because “if you believe in yourself, your dreams will come true!”
The book includes a narrated CD, benefiting the Make-A-Wish Foundation, featuring the voices of singing legend Gloria Gaynor (Grammy Award winner for “I Will Survive,”), Oscar-winning actress Olympia Dukakis, national CBS correspondent Alexis Christoforous, American Idol Heartthrob Constantine Maroulis, and Guiding Light actor Frank Dicopoulos. Each celebrity voices a character that encourages Loukoumi to reach for her dreams, which is especially meaningful when being heard from such inspirational and successful adults. For example, in the book Marika the monkey voiced by Dukakis says she wants to be a great actor and win an Oscar, an accomplishment Dukakis has achieved in her own career. The character of Dean the dog, voiced by Dicopoulos says he wants to be a police captain, a role that Dicopoulos has played on Guiding Light for over 20 years.
The CD also includes an original song from Gloria Gaynor called, “Believe, ” as well as the original Loukoumi book narrated by Olympia Dukakis and featuring the aforementioned character voices. |
