It's a Bookday!

        
Happy Bookday to you, Happy Bookday to you, Happy Bookday dear Pearl! Happy...


Oh, hello there. So glad you dropped by. Don't mind my offkey singing. I'm pretty excited, you see, because today is the Bookday of the US edition of my children's verse novel, Pearl Verses the World.
