Thus I Figured I Would Share In Case Its The Same Book – Looking For A Childhood Book Here’s How

admin

As a child my mother used to read to me out of a greenish book of poems.

i figured I would share in case its the same book. It was called 101 Famous Poems. Of course the poem read to me was called The Duel about a gingham dog and a calico cat. I would like to ask you a question. Can anyone help me? Now please pay attention. My girlfriend was born in 1967 and her father used to read her a poem every night from a book of poems. Sorry to say all she remembers is it was a dark green book. Her dad sadly passed away when she was 12 years old and her mother doesn’t recall either.

Accordingly the story was about a crane, a fox, and a monkey. I know that the crane had a koi pond. The fox was stealing her koi fish one by one each night while she slept. She went to visit a monkey who advised her to heat small rocks in a boiling pot of water until they turned bright redish. Did you know that the monkey told her to replace the koi with the heated rocks. Actually the fox burned his paws so badly the next time he tried to steal a fish that he never bothered the crane or her koi again. Looking for a child’s book.

Book about a teenage girl in New Orleans during Marde Gras. King together with other revelers and stops to dip her hands in a fountain that keeps changing colors, She is wa.

Probably the easiest place for an individual to sell books like those above is on Amazon. Essentially, look up your book, click on the picture, thence look in the dark blue box for Have one to sell? It is sell yours here. Also, amazon’s instructions for selling are very clear. You will now, who goes on a school trip on a bus, picks blackberries and puts them in his pocket forgets about them, as a non Amazon Pro seller. Seriously.
