Poems for Intelligent Children With a Sense of Humor
“In this rollicking and witty collaboration on poems for children, Jack and Adam Jelinski have created a world of rhyme and illustration that is magical, touching, and, most often, downright funny. Whether the subject is a princess turning into a frog, a boy who flies with his ears, a vacationing Dalmatian, a boy who walks on his hands, a girl who eats dead fish on the beach, or a monster who unrolls to seven feet tall, Jack Jelinski creates rhymes that will tickle the fancy of young and old alike; and his son, Adam, provides finely crafted illustrations that lend a whole new dimension to the humor and fantasy. Intelligent children and the child in their parents will get a real kick out of this book whenever bedtime rolls around.”
– Greg Keeler, noted poet, musician, songwriter and artist.

Water Like the Soul of an Angel: Memoirs of a Fisherman
This book contains some of the most beautiful nature poetry you will ever read. The poems capture the true essence of being in the natural world whether you are fishing, camping or hiking in the back country. Here you will learn the first syllables of the language of flowing water and discover that all that mountains want are your wings. In her “Foreword” Valerie Hemingway observes that “There is tragedy and comedy here: jolly ballads, narrative poems of memory-stirring tales, and short, sweet lyrical verses.” The truest measure of the appeal of this book is that readers who usually say “I don’t really read poetry” have become converts and fans. They didn’t expect to read and enjoy poems about swimming the river, ospreys, loons, Swedish augers, carp, crows and smart fish. Finally, this book is a treasure of wisdom, whimsy, and humor that you will want to share with your family and friends.
