Download or read book A Little Something for All Ages written by Mark McCullogh and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2021-07-26 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Little Something for All Ages is compelling and true. Throughout this thoughtful book are illustrations and pages written in a diverse array of poetry from Mark McCullogh, covering practical topics for children, youth, and adults with a touch of history and humor. Suitable for the entire family, this book is a must read and will enhance “family time.” “Helping Mom and Dad with the Big Bad Storm,” a story featured in this book, is a great read to your children. With illustrations, it instructs younger children how to cope by helping you, the parent, prepare for natural disasters such as a hurricane and gives suggestion and comfort to the family during and after the storm. “In the Dawn of Morning” brings the story of 9/11 to life, on how we felt on that dark day in history, and gives a new generation an appreciation of its reality and how America grew stronger for it. “Bush and Gore” is more of a lighthearted historical look at the 2000 election, and with these, in a family setting, helps children understand real-world situations. “Fire Is Not a Friend” helps the youngest of our children understand the dangers of fire, what it does and what happens to bad people who commit them while teaching what fire is for and how to respect it. “Love and Respect Older People” teaches children of all ages to not only love and respect grandma and grandpa but all elders. “The Taming of Deer” is a real-life look at Northern Nomads taming live reindeer with a familiar twist at the end, which makes it enjoyable for the holiday season. “Ode to the Essential Workers” is a tribute to all those on the front lines who have helped us through COVID-19 and continue to do so through all walks of life, who will always be with us in times of trouble. From history to satire and down to adolescent lessons, this book is suitable for the whole family to love. This is the first collection of writings by Mark McCullogh, and there will be more in the coming years.
