Think poetry is boring? Think again!
Mark Beasley returns with another fun-filled collection of poems that turns the everyday upside down and inside out. In Dragon’s Tail for Sale, nothing is too strange or too ordinary to become wonderfully ridiculous-whether it’s trying to sell a dragon’s tail, bouncing kangaroos on pogo sticks, or inventing instant water.
Each unexpected twist on a familiar idea is brought even more to life with the hilarious illustrations of Kem Welch.
Perfect for kids, teachers, parents, and anyone who loves a good giggle, these verses invite you to see the world through Beasley’s playful imagination-where nonsense makes perfect sense and laughter is always up for grabs.
Prepare to have your funny bone tickled!
By the age of sixteen, Mark Beasley was writing and cataloging the first drafts of what would become a lifelong endeavor. His first book, “It’s Me, That’s Who!,” became a reality when a friend introduced him to illustrator Kem Welch.
Their ongoing collaboration led to his second release, How High Is Up?, and now his third book, “Dragon’s Tail for Sale.” The steady progress they’ve achieved together continues to inspire Mark to write more.
A lifelong resident of Charleston, South Carolina, Mark enjoys motorcycle rides through the Lowcountry, playing bass guitar and singing backup in an original band.
