Preface
Being a kid can be fabulous and frightening at the same time. There are so many new things to find and feel and life is an adventure that's exciting and scary. As adults, we've all been there, and have become what we are because of where we've been. It's sad though, to see "grown-ups" who have lost the child in themselves. There's something very healthy in being able to play, pretend, imagine, laugh without reservation, and cry without embarrassment. Once Upon a Rhyme was intended to speak to the child in us all, whether we're 6 or 60. We invite you to... "look and you will find visions in your mind of a day when love was play and life a nursery rhyme. Once upon a rhyme, forever in your heart. Find the child within yourself and let the visions start.".
