The Beaver That Lived in Trees is an educational book about beavers and other wild animals, but it is also a fairy tale. About 6 months ago I got astory about a beaver that lived in trees. So I started to write the next thing I knew I had a short story. Because I knew a few things about beaver and had tried to break open a beaver dam nearly lost my life because we were camped near that damn the beaver cut a large tree down that night right in our camp. My Dad and I were moose hunting in the area. I saw a beaver slap their tail on the water because I was there. I also jumped up and down on a hut it bounced up and down and the beaver swam out. The hut was solid as a rock.

Jim Landry was in the music business, to some significant degree, from 1966 until 2012. In Part One, he'll take you through the theory and his earliest lessons on music. In Part Two, he'll stress his experience - instrumental performance, road work and studio session time. He'll describe work done with some of the bands he formed, managed and performed with. We have two subjects from the cusp between theory and instrumental performance involving music production.Book Review: "Musicians are, without exaggeration, essentially brilliant, sometimes bordering genius. Yet, we are at the same time somewhat mad. Not angry "crazy."Landry fills his book with fascinating stories and details about the music industry and his life on the road. He straightforwardly relates behind-the-scenes antics that are par for the course when talented individuals find themselves in a family consisting of rockers. His love and understanding of music are evident, yet he writes in such a way as to bring non-musicians into the fold, if only in their imaginations. Anyone who has ever wondered what life might be like for those talented enough to make a living in the music industry will find this book mesmerizing, as will those who are rock fans in all its various outlets. The author's love and knowledge of music and desire to share with his reading audience are at the heart of this work. His book is almost a song in itself, one of nostalgia brimming with the rhythms and beats of one man's life.book review by Kat KennedyThe US Review of Books
My mother had always wanted me to write, so I did. Anyway, I woke one morning at 4:30 in the morning in 2009 and I couldn't rest again, as it began to flow. I wrote it down as fast as it came. It took about 30 minutes to do the original book and every book after. I dedicate this book to my Father. One of his favorite things to do was to sit in his rocking chair while watching birds from his window. This book is not only enjoyable but also educational for those bird fanatics as well. I believe God gave me these books and my dad gave me the inspiration behind this story. I hope you enjoy them as much as I had writing them!
