Soup for Breakfast
by
Brown, Calef
From the inner workings of Grandpa's nose hair to noodles in a haystack, Calef Brown once again proves he is a master of hilarious poetic imponderables such as . . . donuts:
Why do all grownups like donuts so much?
They rave about flavors and fillings and such.
They praise all the glazes. They savor the dough.
Donuts are tasty. We get it. We know. |

The Pirate's Daughter
by
Cezair-Thompson, Margaret
"Jamaica will never feel so close as when you're reading this fictionalized tale of Errol Flynn's accidental arrival onto the island and into the hearts of many of its residents -- especially young Ida, who bears his illegitimate daughter, May. A delightful, original treasure that I heartily recommend!" --Dee Robinson, Village Books, Bellingham, WA |
