About

I am a retired high school English teacher. A devourer of books growing up, my profession introduced me to writings and authors from times long past. Through my studies and teaching, I fell in love with the Ancient and Medieval Worlds. Now, I hope to inspire young readers and those Young-at-Heart to read more through my Quest Books set in these worlds.

You can find me on Carpinello’s Writing Pages (http://carpinelloswritingpages.blogspot.com) where I interview other children/MG/Tween/YA authors. My home is at Beyond Today Educator (http://www.beyondtodayeducator.com). At The Quest Books (http://www.adventurequestbooks.com), I’ve teamed up with Fiona Ingram from South Africa and Wendy Leighton-Porter of Abu Dhabi to enable readers to find all of our Ancient and Medieval quest books in one place.

Description

Mice & Spiders & 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 "Computer Speak," 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 "a modern day Dr. Seuss" by GTMA Review. "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!" Publisher's website: http://sbpra.com/SherrillSCannon

Story Behind The Book

I always wanted to live in Medieval England and would love to meet King Arthur. When I started thinking about this story, I wanted it to be different from the stories out there. I didn't want to include time travel or some other magical way to transport readers to medieval Wales. I wanted my readers to wake up in medieval Wales so they would feel like they were actually there. It is my hope that I have done just that!

Reviews

<div> “Pull out those swords and slide into your armor - can one slide into something that bulky? - Doesn't matter because this story will still feed the fantasy of children…” “A Timeless Story of Courage and Loyalty” “[T]he feel of ‘The Goonies’ mixed with ‘The Young Riders’ but set in the time of King Arthur instead…Like a non-romancey chapter out of ‘The Princess Bride.’” “[A] wonderful introduction ~ to King Arthur, and to the lives of knights and others in a castle…” </div>
