If I Were A Tree is about a little boy imagining what it would be like to be a tree. There are fun rhymes with fun scenes that kids can relate to. I came up with the idea for this book while I was driving my nieces and nephew around in their minivan. They asked me to sing them a song, so I came up with a rough version of this story as we drove through the country. They laughed with delight. Ever since, they ask me to sing them the story. I''ve always enjoyed coming up with funny songs. This is one that the kids really enjoy, and I would like to share it with others.

The Billy Ben stories are about a young boy who loves to paint and one day finds himself able to go into his pictures and have adventures. His first picture takes him to a warm beach when he is tired of the snow around his house. After worrying that he will be unable to get home, he finds himself doodling in the sand with a stick and draws his room, and when he smells his mom cooking brownies, he finds himself back in his room. The second picture is of a jungle with a tiger walking away, his tail swaying. As the boy watches, he sees a young girl in a sari who looks frightened and turns to run. Billy Ben runs into the picture to help the girl and has another adventure in an Indian village. The third picture was a result of having been to see a magician with his parents. When he got home, he decided that if he drew the magicians hat, he might be able to find out where the rabbit came from; instead, he found himself falling into the hat and into magic land where he had another kind of adventure. One day, Billy Ben and his friend Patty were at a display in the planetarium, and when Patty screamed because she thought the planets were going to fall on her, Billy Ben decided to take her on one of his trips, this one to the red planet Marsthats exactly what his fourth picture was. Ben and Patty have a different kind of adventure that had some bad people in it that wanted to keep them there.
