A Year With Mama Earth
A Year With Mama Earth

A Year With Mama Earth is a poetic exploration of the seasons.

Mama Earth rustles her autumn wings to cool her hot, tired face. She sighs, and the first September frost crackles over bowing stalks of corn.

“With enchanting text and radiant artwork, A Year with Mama Earth offers a joyous celebration of nature’s beauty and the changing seasons.”

Halloween Good Night
Halloween Good Night

Gliding through the moonlight come the monsters big and small,
sliding up your stairway and oozing down your hall.
They aren’t very scary, in fact they’re rather sweet.
So snuggle into bed and let them whisper, “Trick or treat!”

Ghastly ghouls count down to Halloween in this not-so-terrifying bedtime tale.

Sweetened Condensed
Sweetened Condensed

Rebecca Grabill's first collection of poetry, published by Flying Ketchup Press, brings her readers home to rural Michigan and into the world of a woman on the path less traveled—wife, daughter, teacher, author, and mother of six.

Sweetened Condensed is two parts sugar, three parts milk: the life of a writer and mother of six encapsulated into raw moments of lyrical free verse with the author's black and white photography.

This is not a saccharine swig, but full-body, rich mouthful of poems and pictures that show the deep truth of family.

—Mary Logue, author of Sleep Like a Tiger
