About
I was born and raised in the mid west in Kansas. In 1971, I came to California to pursue a career in acting. I was more fortunate than a lot of kids headed west with stars in their eyes. I appeared in Ivan Reitman's "Ghostbusters" and Television's "Baywatch." Along with a lot of other films and t.v. shows and tons of appearances on stage around Southern Ca.
After semi-retiring, I have started writing novels in the Horror, Sci-Fi and Thriller Genres. I have always loved being a storyteller whether as an actor, special effects artist, or now, novelist.
My Fingerpaint Masterpiece Coloring Book
Description
<p>Have you ever seen a "work of art" worth millions, which looks like something your child just brought home from school?</p><p>The dual perspective of "Beauty Is in the Eye of the Beholder" and just a little bit of "The Emperor's New Clothes" is evident in this clever artwork story of a child who paints a fingerpaint print in class and then loses it in the wind on the way home.</p><p>Illustrated from the point of view of a child, whose identity is left to the imagination of the reader since all of the illustrations are what the child sees, the fingerpaint print is interpreted by official "judges" as well as by bystanders. Should people be influenced by what others see, or use their own self-esteem to make their own judgments? This coloring book version allows children to illustrate their own version of the book, and even to create a "masterpiece" of their own!</p><p>This is the fourth rhyming children's coloring book by this award-winning author, whose other bestselling books include David's ADHD, My Little Angel, The Golden Rule, Mice & Spiders & Webs...Oh My!, Manner-Man, Gimme-Jimmy, The Magic Word, Peter and the Whimper-Whineys and Santa's Birthday Gift.</p><p><strong>About The Author:</strong> Former teacher Sherrill S. Cannon has won over 100 awards for her previous rhyming books and coloring books, and is also the author of 7 published and internationally performed plays for elementary school children. She has been called "a modern day Dr. Seuss." - GTMA Review</p>
Story Behind The Book
I fell in love with all things horror, science fiction and thrillers in the 1950's. I later became an actor, a stuntman and have been involved in building monster costumes for various movies. I always enjoyed reading scary novels and began to want to write my own. When I semi-retired, I finished one I had started writing two years earlier and it is now Evil Moon which I offer the first hundred pages for free, in the hope that you might tell friends and family to go to amazon.com and buy a copy.
Thank you for any help you can render in this effort, and I hope you will enjoy my novel.
Best Regards,
Harrison Ray
