"Anybody Want a Peanut?", a new book by by Michele Menard and Lucille Menard, illustrated by Carolyn Menard and Adrienne Menard, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

"Anybody Want a Peanut?" captures a kaleidoscope of life experiences with an emphasis on love, faith, and humor. Written by the Four Menards, Michele and Lucille engage the reader with the comfort of knowing that God is real, has a sense of humor, and is by our side. Adrienne and Carolyn Menard work together to produce the illustrations for each poem.

The modern-day Savior springs to reality in "Tidal Save," "Don't Draw Your Sword," and "That's Show Biz!" The importance of children is emphasized in "The Little Rocker" and "Now That's Gratitude," while the miracle of birth is honored in "Whose Choice Is It Anyway" and "The Little Miracle."

These and others of the twenty-six beautifully written poems are a joy to read for the young, as well as seniors.
