I SMILE AT THE SUN is a "perky and at times poignant staging of rhymes, tongue-twisters, and Dr. Seuss-like poems for children and 'misidentified grownups.'"

Between comic takes on childhood--trading ice cream, bathtub fears, bugs, and Simon Says--the poems by Judith Barrett Lawson offer wisdom on loss, old age, and the importance of dreams. This book is full of verse in the style of Shel Silverstein that is enjoyable for all ages!

Judith Barrett Lawson is a critically acclaimed writer, lyricist, seasoned screenwriter, and former film executive. She is also the proud godmother or auntie to a goggle of gorgeous geniuses who will fight over taking care of her in old age. It was for them these poems were first written, then produced as a play at the Two Roads Theatre in Los Angeles, which the LA Times reviewer called "poignant and perky."

Jude grew up in Wenatchee, Washington. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Pepperdine University. A longtime resident of Malibu, California, Lawson's home succumbed to the infamous Woolsey wildfires, so she is a footloose and fancy-free to come visit your school or town and recite some poetry!
