    About this ebook

    A Shakespearean sonnet as a picture book? 

    Children love rhyme and rhythm...so why not rhyme in a sonnet? This story about breaking a bad habit is short and sweet (140 syllables to be exact). Using the sonnet structure, Cookie faces her screen habit in the three quatrains, but all ends on a positive note in the rhyming couplet. <

    E.J. Wolfson

    E.J. Wolfson is both Canadian and Swiss. She has been writing all her life but inspiration for stories and poems these days comes from having lived in four different countries, with her husband, two children (now grown and married) and a stray dog they found along the way. She currently resides in Switzerland where she writes, as well as designs and edits an international women's club magazine. She loves to discover-to walk and hike, and to travel, especially to all the Medieval villages in Europe.
