Paddington Bear
Another bear series that I enjoyed reading are the 'Paddington Bear' books. This is the series of a British bear who is one who really enjoys marmalade. Paddington Bear is one that wears a raincoat rain or shine and a floppy fedora. He comes for a visit and has a lot of adventures.

Winnie-the-Pooh
Being a book reviewer of mainly children's books I cannot help to keep going back to my favorite ones that I had read as a kid. Who doesn't remember reading 'Winnie-the-Pooh' sometime in elementary school. Winnie-the-Pooh or better known as Edward Bear can teach anyone many lessons on how to be a good person no matter age, creed, or national origin. This is the first in a series of acrostic/critiques.

Signatures
What is a signature? Is it only your name or is something else? We all learned to print then write in cursive our names early in our education whatever year that happened to be. To me a signature could be just a mark on a page like the image above. Remember the phrase 'X' marks the spot. That is a signature of sorts. One just has to learn who they are name wise and mark their 'X' in some way artistically, educationally, socially and even spiritually.

Ode to Writers
Who are writers? We all learn to write our letters whether in manuscript printing or in cursive. Does that make us all writers? I remember back in second grade and just learning how all the letters joined together to make words come alive and it was pretty as a picture written in cursive handwriting with all the lines and curves like the letters 'Q', 'L', 'S', and my favorite was the letter 'Z'. Anyway, what is a writer by profession that we chose to be during a period of our lives.
