A counting book by ones, from one to twenty, then counting in groups of twos, threes, etc. from 2 to 20, 3 to 30, 4 to 40 and up, counting the eyes on frogs, spots on bugs, and so forth. Art work done by kids.
BIOGRAPHY I would rather write than read, and this is because I start a book off without any plot, then develop it as the characters arrive, assert their personalities on it, and turn it into a thriller, mystery, or a light romance. I usually have a time–modern or historical–in mind, and a place. Sometimes even an event I want to highlight. I just start my character going and enjoy the book as it unfolds. I often have to go back and re-write the beginning, but by then I know where I'm going.
