Catch that Can is a whimsical tale of boys playing a game of kick the can. However, during the game something quite unexpected happens—kick the can quickly turns into catch the can!
Although just meant to be a fun read, it deals with friendship, loyalty and even environmental awareness.
It’s always nice to share an enjoyable book with a child or children. The joy the reader and listener get is unmatched. I hope you enjoy reading Catch that Can as much as I did writing it.
Many times authors get their story ideas from reading other books. That’s what happened with this one, although it wasn’t a can (or a gingerbread man) running away. I included themes of loyalty and friendship within, touched on environmental issues and included some tongue in cheek humor. Hope you enjoy it!
For FUN & Learning
Lessons to be Learned, While Also Having
Fun with Reading
Whereas “The Guidance Series” is about issues I dealt with as a primary school counselor, my for “For FUN & Learning” books are just what that title implies. Many of them are rhyming books which kids love, some of them teach the alphabet or are learning numbers books. All of them have some sort of moral or are educating children in a fun way about something. Whether its about the environment, friendship, responsibility or whatever there’s a lesson to be learned, hopefully while having fun while the books are read to them & then having a discussion with an adult about what they should learn from the book.
The Letters Picnic
A rhyming book meant to be a fun and educational read for children learning the alphabet. Hopefully, you will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
Most people, especially children, love rhyming books. This book is simply a fun, counting to ten read that rhymes and has a bit of a tricky ending – kids love tricky endings.
