Waneta Walrus and Her Blue Tu-Tu

Waneta only has one tusk so she is different but that doesn't stop her from becoming a hero and reaching one of her goals. Find out how she finally gets her tu-tu and how she saves the little walrus from the shark. 26 pages and an 867 word count in rhyming verse make it a fun read in one sitting. Teasing is wrong, and you can still be happy to at least reach one of your goals, are good lessons to learn. A simple tongue twister like "long, sharp, shark teeth" could make your child giggle. Pictures that aren't too overwhelming amuse children and allow you to create simple count & color games. How many yellow fish or clouds are there? What colors are in the ball or the kite? Can you find the star fish on pg.18? You and your child's imagination have no limits for creating fun learning games while reading together.

Notă biografică

As a child Jean Ingellis enjoyed simple rhyming so much that she would walk by herself throughout elementary school to read the Mother Goose nursery rhymes book. Although she spent her younger years in Dundalk, Maryland, she has spent most of her adult life in the New England Region raising her five children. After her children were grown Jean taught herself how to read music and play the acoustic guitar. Something she had always wanted to do since she couldn't sing very well. She is still learning and plays a little better than she sings. She loves visiting the ocean beaches and that is probably where she got her inspiration for Waneta. She has enjoyed reading stories to children over the years. Her grandchild is her favorite to read to. One day Jean decided to create her own story and character as a keepsake for her grandson.
