PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Fred Olds has crafted dozens of stories over the years and has been involved with various writing and critique groups. He is a devoted husband and proud father and grandfather living in Central Illinois. After retirement from the Postal Service as an electronic technician, he finally has time to concentrate on writing. A true storyteller at heart, his first love is writing children's books with an occasional murder mystery thrown in for a change of pace. Check out his books for children, Read-Aloud Stories with Fred Vol. 1 and 2, plus the humorous, rhyming picture book, The Dog and the Flea: A Tale of Two Opposites. He is also the author of The Hobo Who Wasn't, an exciting detective story for adults. Margo L. Dill is the author of Maggie Mae, Detective Extraordinaire: The Case of the Missing Cookies (picture book); the American Civil War Adventure Series: Anna and the Baking Championship (1) and Finding My Place: One Girl's Strength at Vicksburg (2), for historical fiction, middle-grade readers; and That's the Way It Always Happened (picture book). Besides being a children's author, she is also a freelance editor with the business, Editor 911 and Editor-911 Books, and she is the managing editor for WOW! Women On Writing. Margo loves presenting workshops to writing groups and school groups. She also loves blogging and does so regularly on WOW!'s blog, The Muffin. When she is not writing or editing, Margo loves to spend time with her daughter and dog, Sudsi. She lives in St. Louis, Missouri; and if she could eat out every day, she would!
As a former elementary school teacher these three stories are some of the cutest, I have ever read. They are titled as Bedtime Stories but I can see reading them at any time. One thing that makes them so special is the lesson each one teaches. If you have ever felt misunderstood, read Ben and The Terrible Red Card. If you want to help your child with making friends, read The Hobbling Hermit. Finally, Sammy and The Cross-Eyed Crow will share about helping others. My recommendation would be from ages 5 to 8 years old. L. Lofton The stories in this book are perfect for bed time, with such sweet characters and three great bite-sized stories. I read this to my niece, and she enjoyed it so much that I purchased more to send as gifts to my friends with children! Erin E. This book of stories is positively delightful. They are vivid and in turns funny and heartfelt. The perfect stories to read aloud. Each one is a perfect little drama that will delight your little loved one and delight you as well. Amy Burle
