Description

<span style="line-height:115%;font-family:Calibri, 'sans-serif';font-size:11pt;"><span style="font-family:Calibri;">Peter and the Whimper-Whineys is about a small rabbit who whines all the time. His mother cautions him that if he keeps on whining and crying, he’ll have to go live with the Whimper-Whineys. One night Peter hops into the dark forest.<span>  </span>He meets some Whimper-Whineymen and discovers that not only do the Whimper-Whineys whine all the time, but they are very ill-mannered and rude. He discovers that everything is sour in Whimper-Whineyland and decides his mother was right! If only he can get back home… a recent critique, “Though there are other books out there for children about whining, I cannot imagine any parent or guardian not wanting to read this book to their child!... <span> </span>Parents everywhere applaud you!” </span></span>

Story Behind The Book

What happens when two heartbroken lovers with caribbean souls find themselves washed up on the shores of the same town, too far north of somewhere south? A helluva good time,a lot of laughs, a few tears, and a jambalaya cook-off challenge that led to a boatload of recipe sharing from the tropics, and the creation of...The BackYard Tiki Bar: Cocktails & Cooking Island Style. A cookbook full of easy culinary recipes, jokes, quotes, stories from the tropics, photos, and more.
