A Book of Birds and Verse for Young and Old
A Book of Birds and Verse is a collection of good-humoured verse fused together with illustrations of some of our best-loved wild birds; birds that we may see every day in our gardens, towns and countryside.
The writer and wildlife artist Joseph Johnson has combined his talents of painting and writing to bring the reader a presentation of a number of Britain’s favourite wild birds, each one introduced through rhyming verse.
Joseph has enjoyed a lifelong love of the natural world and is a keen conservationist. He has written this collection of short illustrated poems with a humour which will introduce, entertain and perhaps educate the young reader as well as the maybe not so young to many of the characteristics of the subjects.
Our fine feathered friends are a blessing to us all and the author hopes that the readers of this book may come to see some of them in a new and fresh light together with a smile.£9.99 -
A Book of Poems and Stories
Young Tree, for that was his name, had everything he could wish for; plenty of love, warmth and food from the forest he lived in with his older brother and parents.
Yet he wanted more than this; he wanted an adventure.
He found it difficult to concentrate on the lessons his mother gave him every day. He dreamt of exotic islands and endless beaches, with coconuts growing everywhere. Monkeys befriended him to keep him company, with flocks of birds to talk to all day.
One fine day he set forth, pulling up his roots. His steps were light and he was full of hope. Leaves crunched beneath his feet.
Even in his determination to face the challenges ahead of him, and which crossed his young mind; the path became more and more difficult.
Have you ever wished for an adventure of your very own, then this is the story for you.
Read on and see what happens to Young Tree…

Children's Christmas Rhymes
Mince pies and carrots on the plate
Glass of milk in pride of place
Under the tree is the perfect place
Waiting for Santa with his jolly face

Sack in hand, presents placed
Off he goes to another place
Riding high in the sky
I caught a glimpse as reindeer galloped by
Merry Christmas everyone
