Über den Autor

Raymond H. Haan attended Calvin College and the University of Michigan. He scrambled through thirty-nine years of teaching English, simultaneously pursuing his passion for music by serving a church musician and publishing much music for worship. Since retiring from teaching and active music-making, he has written a light-hearted book of serious grammar instruction, has produced miscellaneous prose, and written a good helping of poetry, including Singing the Gamut and Word Songs and Whimsies, published by Wipf and Stock. Chris M. Cook has been an artist since she could hold a crayon. She graduated from Kendall College of Art and Design, long before artwork was done on the computer. A mom of five, she enjoys most forms of creative expression.
