Description

<p>Mice &amp; Spiders &amp; Webs...Oh My! Is your child a good listener? Rosemary is a little girl who is worried about returning to school after her teacher warns the class that they would soon have some mice, spiders, and webs in the classroom. Could Rosemary have misunderstood something? How can mice and spiders and webs belong at school? Full of &quot;Computer Speak,&quot; this story introduces young readers to basic computer terms in a delightful way! See if your child can discover the mystery of the misunderstood words, and learn about the fun of computers with Rosemary. This is the seventh rhyming children's book by this award-winning author, whose other bestselling books include 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 twenty-eight awards for her six previous rhyming books, and is also the author of seven published and internationally performed plays for elementary school children. She has been called &quot;a modern day Dr. Seuss&quot; by GTMA Review. &quot;I love to teach, and this book teaches basic computer terms in a fun way. I am retired and spend six months of the year with my husband of 55 years, traveling from coast to coast and sharing books along the way. I grew up in The Willard Hotel in Washington, D.C. , where my father was the manager. I'm the original Eloise!&quot; Publisher's website: http://sbpra.com/SherrillSCannon</p>

<span style="font-family:georgia, serif;font-size:12px;line-height:18px;">&quot;...a brilliant and stunningly original work, by far the best novel I read in 2008.&quot; <br />- <a href="http://www.alternativereel.com/includes/cult-fiction/display_review.php?id=00067" style="color:#666600;">Alternative Reel</a> <br /><br />&quot;as authentic as they come, experimental without trying to be intentionally obscure, dark without making you doubt humanity, smart and energetic. In short, it’s great writing.&quot; <br />&quot;...it’s about obsession, self-negation, love, even God (“The Everything”), making Broken Bulbs an entirely unique take on a subject. It’s a science fictional, hard-boiled, poetic vision of drug addiction and hamsters (read it!) A great addition to a genre that has never existed before.&quot; <br />- <a href="http://www.selfpublishingreview.com/2009/02/01/broken-bulbs-by-eddie-wright/" style="color:#666600;">Self-publishing Review</a> <br /><br />&quot;...this slim volume is the bastard child of Memento and William S Burroughs, absolutely not for the faint of heart nor for anyone seeking a nice, simple beach read.&quot; <br />- <a href="http://www.cclapcenter.com/2009/03/book_review_broken_bulbs_by_ed.html" style="color:#666600;">Jason Pettus, The Chicago Center for for Literature and Photography</a> <br /><br />&quot;An existentialist’s dream, the author has dug in deep and laid bare the raw emotion so candidly that we can actually feel the futility, the desperation, and the humour.&quot; <br /><br />&quot;Philip Dick would be proud.&quot; <br />- <a href="http://podpeep.blogspot.com/2009/01/review-broken-bulbs.html" style="color:#666600;">POD People</a> </span><div><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:18px;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family:georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:18px;">&quot;...the absolute perfect spot-on portrait of the mind of an addict.&quot; <br />&quot;The first chapter alone is a nauseating churn of short choppy staccato sentences, random thoughts and actions, that read like beat poetry at a slam.&quot; <br />&quot;The whole thing is filled with crazy quips and one liners worthy of a high lighter so you can memorize and use them later.&quot; <br />- <a href="http://llbookreview.com/2008/09/review-34-broken-bulbs-by-eddie-wright/" style="color:#666600;">The LL Book Review</a> <br /><br />&quot;...strangely complex and fascinating.&quot; <br />- <a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8va2F5ZXRyb3V0LmJsb2dzcG90LmNvbS8yMDA4LzA1L2Jyb2tlbi1idWxicy1ieS1lZGRpZS13cmlnaHQuaHRtbA==" style="color:#666600;">Kaye Trout's Book Reviews</a><br /></span></span></div>
