LOVE IS A VERB
The Big Green Lizard
Lessons from a Giant Green Iguana

Drawing of Clarence the Iguana from LOVE IS A VERB, a Fletcher Publishing Children's Book.

NEW!  NEW!  NEW!

New Children's Book from Fletcher Publishing, written by Clarence, a Giant Green Iguana.  Beautiful prose-poetry for artsy, smart kids.  Cute charcoal drawings and dropped caps throughout.  Life of a captive reptile from the lizard's point of view.  Painless, entertaining lessons on responsible pet ownership, wildlife management, sprinkled with folk wisdom.  Touching tributes to motherhood, natural and assumed.  References to current human conflicts with succinct reptilian explanations.  Scaly, non-preachy philosophy too cute for words!
