This is a post I wrote in 2017 that I wanted to share with you again. Jerry the Crabby Crayfish is one of my most popular books. Kids and parents love Jerry. He teaches children that it is okay to be different. It is okay to be happy with who you are.
It’s time to stock up on books for fun summer reading, before summer is over, that will instill good behavior in your children. Happy Reading! Reading is Good for your health!
If you are just tuning in, I have been writing limericks for my children’s books. I posted three previous ones. Go to Limerick for Louey here, Ricky here, and Lamby here.
Here is the fourth limerick for my fourth published children’s book (2014), Jerry the Crabby Crayfish.
Jerry the Crabby Crayfish
There once was a crayfish named Jerry
Who every day was anything but merry.
Each day his wish
Was to be a fish.
Until he realized he wanted to be just Jerry!
Jerry is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other online stores.
Blurb:
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.
Jemsbooks’ children’ books carry life lessons that instill in children good values. Jerry teaches children the importance of being happy with whom you are and strive to be the best you can possibly be. Jerry won a Pinnacle Book Achievement Award!
Jerry was a real crayfish in a tank in our home. He is no longer with us now but he was quite a character! He did wave his claws at anyone who came too close to his tank. When he was hungry he would wave and tap one claw on the side of the tank to get our attention. He really was a beautiful blue color! He was a lot of fun to watch and we all miss him, my grandchildren especially.
