Book Description
A humorous tale about acceptance, social justice and keeping an open mind. Though he’s scared at first, a boy who encounters an alligator in the woods discovers all the creature wants is companionship — and leftovers! — and the two become friends. But the mayor of the boy’s town won’t have it. He makes a proclamation, “NO ALLIGATORS! Blah, blah, blah.” Which the townspeople agree with, at first. Then they realize how friendly the alligator is (and how nice it is to have someone eat their leftovers!), and they want him to stay. Can they all come together and find a way to keep the alligator in their town? See you later, alligator? Not if these townspeople can help it!

Pages : 124
Book Description
Funny and free, 100 illustrated limericks Ella Hodsdon made all this for you. She enjoyed it a lot herself, too. With colour and rhyme, You forget about time, Getting one hundred new points of view. Ella Janet Hodsdon was born in January 1934 in the Kentish Town of Gravesend, England. Apart from a working career as a school teacher, next to being a splendid spouse, a marvellous mother and a great grandmother, Ella paints, writes, and creates beauty in any other way she can imagine. Not only her imagination makes her art stand out. Her kindness, her wisdom, her wit, and her energy fill the white space between her colourful lines. And don't forget her modesty: she never thought her work was worth publishing; she created all this just to entertain herself. Making people laugh is perhaps the highest form of art, and making them think twice is beyond wisdom. Ella inspires like Keats and Turner, like Emily Brontë and Frida Kahlo.
