Original Story Poems is a collection of children's stories that were written by John Marinelli, the author, for his children when they were small. That's been over 40 years ago. The stories came right out of the imagination of the author, as well as, several true-life experiences that prompted him to pen a rhyme.
The true life experiences were, "Chasing Rainbows", when he and his young son actually drove through the end of a beautiful rainbow; "Three Vans All In A Row" which were traveling down the road in the other lane one night as the author watched them pass on by; and "The Little Chicken" a real child hood experience that the author recalls even unto this day.
The book also contains the fictional story; "The Adventures of Buddy Boy. There are over 80 pages full of humorous, real to life and imaginary stories about little chickens, dogs, bulls, cars, rainbows, trees and numerous other characters.
It's a timeless source of reading pleasure. It has been used in elementary school poetry classes, as daycare reading material, and bedtime story readings.
