Meet the Jolly Jangles: A fun and interactive book for young readers (Jolly Jangles and Friends, Band 1) - Softcover

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Marilyn Cook grew up on the Wirral in Cheshire and has happy memories of long sunny days playing in the park or at the beach with her four sisters and three brothers. Being one of eight children she learnt the importance of family and sharing. Being the second in line she also learnt how to help to look after her siblings and to help with their homework, to show them the importance of education but also how to have fun whilst learning. Marilyn now lives with her husband Michael in the beautiful green valleys of South Wales where her first crocheted teddy bear was created. It was a suggestion from Steve, one of her brothers, that she make a family of teddy bears and write a children's book about them. It didn't take long for Marilyn's imagination to take off and so the adventures of her cute little teddy bears started taking shape and the Jolly Jangles were born. Marilyn also has a love of poetry, photography and graphic design. All illustrations in the Jolly Jangles book are designed by Marilyn using the wonderful photographs that Michael took of the teddy bears and the background pictures that she took. She has written all of the poetry in the book too. She has an amazing daughter called Chloe who has helped her with all of the marketing of these wonderful Jolly Jangles. It is truly a family affair. Marilyn enjoys making greetings cards and gets involved in many other craft projects. Her enthusiasm is endless and you can find examples of her work online - mc-creations.co.uk - oh and she designs websites too! Follow Marilyn's journey as the stories of her Jolly Jangles unfold, watch them grow with your child, enjoy each character and make them part of your own family. www.jollyjangles.com
