The Opera Singer Who

After reading an article about a matador, I was inspired to write The Matador Who Ran Away From The Spider.  About a matador in Spain, the piece briefly mentioned that she was scared of spiders.  I thought this was hilarious .. and it’s the punchline to my first funny rhyme .. “Perreras is used to fighting huge creatures as a bullfighter.  But then he’s scared of such a tiny spider!”

And .. around the same time I woke up and found that something had bitten me.  There was a Huntsman spider living above our front door, inside the house, could it have been him?

The Matador Who Ran Away From The Spider, is the first in a series of educational, yet funny bedtime stories for kids.  My twin nephews, whom I was constantly trying to entertain – Jayden and Harrison, motivated me to write the stories.
