About

I have a weird addiction to goat cheese and chocolate martinis, not together though.
I adore my dog. He is the most awesome snuggledoo in the history of dogs. Seriously.
I hate dirty dishes.
I like sarcasm and funny people.
I should probably be running right now... because of the goat cheese....and stuff.

Description

<p>Have you ever loved, been loved, been confused about love, or suffered from loss of love? All these feelings have been captured and shared in the words of heartfelt poems, compiled over many years by a former teacher and award-winning author.</p><p>Sherrill S. Cannon now shares her thoughts in this book of feelings. &quot;As a teacher, I used poetry to help counsel many troubled teens and friends, and have continued this pattern throughout the years.&quot;</p><p>There are three sections in her book: Heads, Spinning, and Tails ... (Love &amp; Loss: Coin Toss?). The variety of lyrical poetry forms include free verse, blank verse, haiku, and sonnets. Some poems are simply plays on words.</p><p><strong>A Sign</strong></p><p>In the depths of my winter</p><p>I heard a small bird -</p><p>Braving the cold,</p><p>Bringing the word.</p><p>He gave my heart hope</p><p>As I heard him sing -</p><p>Three little notes</p><p>Promising spring.</p><p>Sherrill S. Cannon, a former teacher and grandmother of 10, is the author of nine acclaimed rhymed children's stories that have received 48 national and international book awards between 2011 and 2017. Also a playwright with seven published plays for elementary school children, her works have been performed internationally in over 20 countries. Most of her children's books try to teach something, such as good manners and caring for others. Married for 57 years, she and her spouse are now retired, live in Pennsylvania, and travel in their RV from coast to coast, spending time with their children and grandchildren.</p><p><strong>Publisher's website: </strong> http: //sbprabooks.com/SherrillSCannon</p><p> </p>

Story Behind The Book

Reviews

<p>&quot;I really can’t explain how much I loved this story, everything is perfect in it. The right amount of smiles, laughter, anger, tears, fun and the right amount of sex scenes. I love the characters and have major book hangover right now!</p> <p>I think you have a forever fan here Katie! 5 stars for sure.&quot; NerdGirl</p> <p>&quot;<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Noteworthy;font-size:18px;line-height:24px;">Tug of War by K. Larsen is the kind of book that will bring you relief after a long stretch of same old same olds. </span></p> <div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Noteworthy;font-size:18px;line-height:24px;">I loved Clara and really wanted to see her do well and Larsen delivered! What a breath of fresh air! The plot drops were delivered with perfect timing. It was like, &quot;Pow! You thought you knew but you didn't know! Take that!&quot; So well done!&quot; - Magic Within The Pages</div>
