About
I am an author, freelance writer and website builder. I write about my two loves, the paranormal and the blues. The common ground between my loves is history. I love history. My latest book is The Irish Slaves, a non-fiction account of a little-known part of Irish history. The one before that was Haunted Marietta, written for the History Press about my town, Marietta, GA, which recently went into its second printing! I also wrote Ghost to Coast and Ghost to Coast Tours and Haunted Places. For the blues, I wrote T'ain't Nobody's Business If I Do, about women blues singers, and I write a column for examiner.com, Atlanta Blues Examiner. You can learn all about my websites, directories, and more about my books at the website listed above.
Description
<p>What if you treated others the way you'd like to be treated? What if everyone did that? What kind of world could there be? Robert and Kait decide to look for the golden ruler that their Mom has told them about, only to find out that she meant RULE instead of ruler. What is this "Golden Rule" and what does it mean? Join in the children's quest to discover how to follow the Golden Rule and share it with others, as you meet many classroom friends from the author's previous books. This is the eighth rhyming children's book by award-winning author Sherrill S. Cannon, whose other bestselling books include Mice & Spiders & Webs...Oh My!, My Fingerpaint Masterpiece, Manner-Man, Gimme-Jimmy, The Magic Word, Peter and the Whimper-Whineys and Santa's Birthday Gift. Former teacher Sherrill S. Cannon has won thirty-six awards for her previous rhyming books and is also the author of seven published and internationally performed plays for elementary school children. She has been called "an absolute master of rhyming" by Mother Daughter Book Reviews and "a modern day Dr. Seuss" by GMTA Review. She lives in New Hope, Pennsylvania. Now retired, she travels the country with her husband in an RV, going from coast to coast to visit their children and grandchildren, and sharing her books along the way.

Story Behind The Book
While I was creating my weekly newsletter for children of safe, fun websites, Fabulous Freebies and Fun Links for Kids, I kept running across great recipes for creating all sorts of craft supplies, from glue to fingerpaint, watercolors, clay, and many, many more. I decided to collect them for my grandchildren and to share with others who might love the idea of knowing exactly what is in the craft supplies their children are using, as well as the budget-friendly and ecological nature of using ingredients you already have at home! Who knew you can even recycle dryer ilnt to make clay, for instance? Or what mom of a toddler wouldn't appreciate edible clay and fingerpaint? So, that is the story behind this little book. I added the stories, starring my grandchildren just for fun!
