Review:

Put a smile on your face...this charming little book offers a delightful collection of poetry, ranging from imaginative pieces for children to those providing insight into our later years. This first work of Barbara D. Johnson lifts our spirits with lighthearted images of bears, owls, and colorful monsters in the closet, while enriching us with grandmotherly wisdom. In this treasury of love, devotion, and laughter, you see the warmth and compassion of a woman who has always strived to bring out the best in others by sharing her wealth of happiness.

---------------------------------------------------

The collection is illustrated by Janet C. Marshall with pencil drawings depicting the author's cut-paper silhouettes she creates to entertain preschool children while storytelling.

---------------------------------------------------

Barbara Johnson is a long-time resident of Alexandria, Virginia, where she raised three daughters. Her grandson, William provides inspiration for several of the poems, as do the children in vacation Bible school.
