About this ebook

Brock is a good boy; a teacher-pleaser and a straight-A studentbut, unfortunately, a control freak.

Nanny is very much a lady... with impeccable manners and sees no reason why others should not also conform to a large measure of civility.

Brock is a smart, autonomous learner; but has missed the very important concept of not having the right to control others... (or passively-aggressively bully them).

Nanny is committed to young people mastering the art of introspection, self-reflection, and self-correction.

Brock is happy-go-lucky, confident, never experienced failure... but is quickly traveling down a self-destructive path toward a warped ego... until... Nanny introduces a soft, mooshey 'wake-up' call... a.k.a. 'consequences' to his over-inflated sense of self.

Nanny has the wisdom of generations and accesses every amelioration possible to solve this family's problems.

Author

Bailey E

Linda had wanted to be a writer, geologist, paleontologist, or singer since 6th grade when she received her first geode from her father and wanted to solve/write mystery stories. She grew up reading Dr. Seuss—loving the nonsensical wordology; Seuss’ poetry also appealed to her—rhyming is still a current family pastime. With her nose so often stuck in a book, sometimes under the covers with a flashlight, her father hid her books from her so she would ‘join’ the family activities. She vowed to never become a teacher, but following more than twenty years in teaching and counseling, she has encountered many outlandish, creative ideas—some of which could not be stuffed away in Shel Silverstein’s attic any more—another one of her favorite authors. The title of Nanny from the Black Legume, obviously, is a spin-off from the Black Lagoon series which, ostensibly, may be a spin-off from the 1950’s movie, Creature from the Black Lagoon. but who wants to find out what kind of copyright laws we might all have broken—especially deep down under the murky waters of a black lagoon? Working on and around the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation since 1999, Linda considers the friends and students there to be among the best she has ever known. Her first book, A Codumbus Colundrum, was inspired after learning a different perspective while taking the SD-required Indian Education course for certification. Several Indian friends were also influential in alerting her to the truth. She has many ideas patiently waiting for attention on the back burner and hopes to accomplish these and many more dreams and serendipitous ideas. Four grandchildren keep her busy; all wannabe and future illustrators. She lives with her family in western South Dakota.
