Happy & Brainy Group discussion

Llyn suggested that I drop by an introduce the "Happy & Brainy Group" to eNursery Rhymes.


eNursery Rhymes by Mother Mouse teach the necessary little lessons of computer literacy for the digital age with an infectious rhythm that makes them hard to forget.

The critics' reaction has been positive. eNursery Rhymes™ has been recommended by ComputerEdge Magazine, and The MidWest Book Review calls eNursery Rhymes™ "a delightful collection of brief poems . . ., deriving from the computer and the internet, have that very funny but "oh-so-true" recognition that will entertain and delight the reader."

Here's a sample of one of the eNursery Rhymes:

A Jolly Phisherman


I asked a jolly phisherman: Have you any phish?
Yes, sir! Yes, sir! More than you could wish.
One sent a bank account, one sent a PIN.
One sent a password that let me log right in.
I said to myself, and I thought to myself,
And I said to myself, said I:
If an eMail asks for your name and a PIN,
You never should click Reply.

eNursery Rhymes are all accompanied by cartoons. You can see some more samples of them with their cartoons here



There are two versions of eNursery Rhymes: One is with B&W cartoons (that's the one above), the other reproduces the color plates and rhymes from the 1892 edition of "Mother Goose’s Rhymes & Chimes" by McLoughlin Brothers, and places the corresponding colorized eNursery Rhyme cartoon and rhyme on the facing page. You can see a sample of them here

There are 10 copies of each available on the GoodReads GiveAway, so drop by and sign up for the drawing.


There is a companion book of short stories on the giveaway list as well: Once More Upon a Time: A Book of Stories that brings the Characters of the old Fairy Tales back into the Modern World. The stories do the same thing to fairy tale motifs that eNursery Rhymes do to the classic nursery rhymes. You can read a sample story here.

Kudos, T.H.E.

Based on A Jolly Phisherman, eNursery Rhymes is a Happy & Brainy book. Congratulations and good fortune.

Thanks for joining us.

Hi T.H.E, I was delighted to read the eNursery Rhymes collection. It was witty, cute drawings, and the poems were a HOOT! I think anyone who reads this book will give it 4 or 5 stars! Kudos to you and best wishes with the book. Donna

Thanks, Donna, for the great reaction to eNursery Rhymes. My mother did the drawings. I have no talent in that area. I didn't see you name on the list of those signed up to win a free copy here on the GoodReads giveaway page. Be sure to sign up. There are 10 copies available.
