Default Animals Like Reading!

Blatant advertisement!

My booklet of poems for children, Animals Like Reading!, is now available from Lulu Press.

It is a collection of ten poems about animals who for various reasons enjoy the pleasures of a good book. Each poem is illustrated by a line drawing by Bruce Bentzman.

This is, in my biased opinion, the ideal stocking-filler for the intelligent child this Christmas.
Full details, and sample poems, can be found at:

I've just bought two copies, one for my intelligent 9-year old grandson - and the other one is for me!

Well done, and congratulations George.

Thanks, Jayne!
And even more thanks for sending the photo of Leo, your highly literate corn snake, as he casts an erudite eye over an official document.
I've posted the photo here:

Wordpress is a bit difficult to navigate, George, so there's a direct link to the photo here

I really enjoyed Animals Like Reading! My only complaint is that ten poems is not enough; I wanted it to go on and on...

(There's a typo on page 14, line 5, George: ''that'' should be ''than''. At least with Lulu you can edit subsequent purchases.)

Do buy this little book, everyone! It's delightful.

Jayne
