I am so excited I can't think to write my post for
today. I have been published I have a
book that I wrote. And the proofs are on their way to me. I would like to express my deepest thanks to
all who have press me to write and to most of all Melissa Tandoc and Jamie
Saloff who helped to make this happen. Melissa art work that has graced the
pages of the book and Jamie’s editing of my writing they have made it all
possible.
Here is the cover and the first chapter:
1
Andre
In the woods of the great northwest
old growth forest, some time long ago, there was a squirrel named André.
He had a long bushy tail
and a brownish gray coat. He lived in a hundred-foot-tall Douglas fir, in a
hole that a woodpecker had made high in the big old tree. Now André was not
liked by the other animals in the forest. André would watch and when the chipmunks stored their nuts and
berries, André would scurry down from the big old tree and steal what they had
stored. When Steven the old
grizzly bear came by the big old tree André would chase him away from his big tree by dropping pinecones on him. He would yell and chatter whenever Kathy the owl tried to sleep in the big old tree. He would not share the big old tree... He was very, very ornery, André.
