I'll probably worry any dinner guests when I excuse myself to take care of decanting the vegetables and elutriating my hands.The dictionary can be fun.

Working her way through the dictionary, Campbell artfully chose her words, from a through z, and crafted stories expressing the different facets of each word and its range of definitions and usages. Resplendent with humor and touches of wisdom, Between Webster and Me will leave you wanting a relationship with the dictionary of your very own.

This book shows two sides of a mental breakdown. The first described by Laurie as she experienced it when she was 18. The other described by her mother Carol as she tried to understand and find help for Laurie.A person having a breakdown loses their normal perception of reality and finds it difficult to make appropriate choices. They need someone to guide them towards help and show them love and acceptance while they struggle to once again find their true self.Don't give up-there is a right kind of help somewhere. Mental illness is not a death sentence. Greater awareness and education have brought about successful treatments for many. The closet doors are opening. More help and greater compassion are erasing the stigma, which has for so many years haunted persons going through this illness. This is why we have written this book.

Carol Joan Campbell has been writing stories and poems for most of her life. But in her later years, as a mother-grandmother and great grandmother - she has found special joy in writing for children.In 1997, she wrote songs for a children's CD titled "Why Knot Play By The Rules". This CD is made up of songs that teach safety rules. Written for children and sung by kids, this is a great learning tool presented in a pleasant way. It includes rules warning not to play with matches, "Don't You Scratch That Match", being careful with pets "I Love Puppies and Kittens", etc. One of the songs concerning safety around swimming pools "You Don't Have Fins", won 4th place in John Lennon's international children's song writers competition that year.She hopes that all of you, children and adults, will enjoy the poems in this book, and perhaps see different views of flowers and nature. Grandmas and Grandpas are lucky, 'Cause when their children give birth, They welcome a glimpse of heaven, And get their own special angels on earth.
