From the Top of My House

Encouraged by “rave reviews” from fellow teachers, friends, and students, the author, who is also a mother and grandmother, has compiled this small collection of poems and mini-stories to share with others who are children at heart. Written from a child’s point of view, this book is a delightful book of discovery. It relates the excitement a child feels from flying a kite, owning a horse, riding a bike, climbing heights, catching a fish, making a snow man, watching the activities of crawfish and other animals, and learning to share the experiences with other children. Each selection is told in a simple, direct, and entertaining way with illustrations that are sure to bring chuckles of delight to everyone. It can charm the young and transport adults back to a time when life was lovely and uncomplicated. No one can remain untouched by its poignant contents.
