About

I have been writing since a young age and have always had a unique perspective of the mad world around me.

My poetry is at its best when dark, but I can find moments to be softer.

I simply enjoy writing and hope people can find some poems they like from my collection.

My first self published book is called ‘Thoughts in Rhyme’ , which is a journey through life in poetry.

My influences are; samurai tradition, aromatherapy, psychology, London, religion, working world, relationships, death, abuse, music, film and the media.

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>

Story Behind The Book

The book is a collection of thoughts of what I had seen, heard or done. I used a loose form to keep the idea theses were thoughts in my head, but used the poetic style to structure them.
