Grandma's Imaginary Shtick Beat the Doldrums

In this collection of stories and poems, an imagination has been unleashed when pigs fly, a hawk saves a tiny hedgehog instead of "having" him for lunch, and a toy hatchet is found to be magical.

But can you imagine what happens when the family dog wants to be homeschooled with the kids? Do his antics land him in the doghouse or is the teacher in the dog's house?

About the author

Inspiration is subjective, mine is family. After raising our daughter, I went to work at Pomona College in California. When given the opportunity to watch our granddaughter, I left Pomona after eleven years. I came away from the College with memories of trips abroad, wonderful friends and a heightened appreciation of academia. We should never stop listening, learning or expressing and each of those can be nurtured when reading to a child. My role as grandmother renewed my love of children's books and presented me with two beautiful reasons to write Grandma's Imaginary Shtick Beat the Doldrums and Skipper.Open a book . . . there's an opportunity in each to love a character you've yet to meet.
