I hope you have a favorite children’s book in my collection of 22 books. I can tell you that the most popular children’s book of mine sold on Amazon is Jerry the Crabby Crayfish.
Jerry captivates young children and adults with its rhymic prose, colorful illustrations and important life lessons that children learn as they read or that are read to them.
PINNACLE BOOK ACHIEVEMENT AWARD WINNER!
Jerry is a crabby crayfish who all day long wishes he could be a fish. One day something happens in the fish tank that makes Jerry change his mind. Read about the valuable lesson Jerry learns.
Children love to read about real-life animals, their habitat, characteristics and what they eat. In this book I share my experience and photos of a real crayfish that we had as a pet in a fish tank. The real Jerry was indeed crabby and did a lot of the things that I mentioned in the book with a little embellishment.
It was fascinating to watch Jerry in action as he molted many times and stayed inside his shell to protect himself from the other inhabitants in the tank until he was stronger. We share photos of him and the cover is Jerry in action in his tank. He was every bit as beautiful as he appears in the cover. It was a sad day when he died. I was deepened saddened at his loss and had a difficult time explaining why Jerry was no longer in his tank to my grandchildren who came to love him too. We could never purchase another crayfish since then. They are no longer available.
