The House Where the Robin Sings

As a caregiver for over 20 years to my mother, writing stories became a way to escape into a world of make believe. I have been asked "How do you write a children's story?" Well, you put your mind into that of a 10 year old child and write! Since I have the brain of a 10 year old, it wasn't hard!

As a caregiver for over 20 years to my mother, writing stories became a way to escape into a world of make believe. I have been asked "How do you write a children's story?" Well, you put your mind into that of a 10 year old child and write! Since I have the brain of a 10 year old, it wasn't hard!

I have always been a lover of animals and birds. There wasn't a year I can remember that we didn't have a parakeet in the house. That's because I was allergic to cats, long haired dogs and horses. My dream of being a veterinarian was curtailed at a very early age, I can assure you.

I actually took up writing in 2005 with "My Fine Feathered (and Furry) Friends" (published by Publish America). It was a humorous look at feeding the birds and animals where I work. Since then I have been writing short animal stories and decided it was time for a children's book. This book is the end result.

In the ever increasing "electronic world" we live in I believe there is still nothing better than curing up with a good book. As a child, reading can make your imagination soar and take you places you've never been before. It did with me.

It is my hope that these stories will become favorites of you and your children. If they make you giggle or just go "Awww!" my work is complete. Please feel free to write to me at wildbirdy1@neo.rr.com. I would love to hear from you.
