Cannon is a master at writing such delightful children’s books. They both teach a lesson without talking down to the child and tell a wonderful story. The illustrations always go wonderfully with the books. I have read all of her children’s books and each one gets better. Gimme-Jimmy is an amusing story of young Jimmy who has a tendency to be selfish and always demanding instead of asking. Sherrill S.

Even though written for the very young they do take one back to their own childhood lessons and days. (less)

I love it, the chance to return to one's innocent childhood memories and smile and laugh with the joy of remembering your own memories. Reading the total spectrum of the childhood experience that these pages hold is precious.(less)
