Icky Sticky by Cynthia Williford A little of this, a little of that, a bit more of the other. That's how you make some sticky goo to use on your kid brother. You can glue him to a bookcase. You can glue him to a chair. You can glue him to the kitchen sink (just be sure that Mom's not there). You can glue him to the bed post. You can glue him to the floor. Wouldn't he look awful cute glued to the front door? Just be sure you hide it, that icky sticky goo, or someday little brother will icky sticky you. © 2005 |

White Lie by Cynthia Williford It wasn't that I didn't know I shouldn't lie, for I've been told (and told, and told). And rightly so! The truth is something to uphold. But gee, you see, the thing was that when Auntie Sarah came to call she asked me how I liked her hat - and the matching chartreuse shawl. What could I say? It made me gag? I thought that might upset her. She's better off dressed in a bag? I doubted that was better. And so I fibbed, I did just that, and thought I'd dodged the ball - until she mailed me my own hat... and a matching chartreuse shawl. © 2005 |

Curious Cat by Cynthia Williford It's a curious thing to hear a cat sing be it hip-hop, jazz or the blues. It'll make your head spin, turn your world outside-in, even make the front page of the news... ...which is why they don't do it very often. © 2004 |

Gator Grub by Cynthia Williford A hungry alligator will eat you now instead of later. A full one will just save you for a snack. But it really doesn't matter if it's the former or the latter, 'cause either way you won't be coming back. © 2004 |

At the Orchard by Cynthia Williford Russet apples by the pound, up in trees and on the ground, smell so good I want to cry: eat you now, or wait for pie? Fluffy's Bath by Cynthia Williford Water sloshing in the tub, soap and bubbles, rub, rub, rub. First a splish, and then a splash, then a loud and watery crash. Fluffy's sort of in-between, but Dad . . . he's never been so clean. © 2005 |

Good Book, Bad Book by Cynthia Williford I read a book that was quite bad, but not because the book was sad, or short, or dull (which I really hate). No, overall, this book was great! So what was wrong, you ask, my friend? Two little words that said "The End". © 2005 |
