  • You Can't Teach an Old Dog New Tricks Because

    Olga M. Fyne

    Paperback (Avid Readers Publishing Group, July 7, 2010)
    The Proverb: "You Can't Teach an Old Dog New Tricks", connotes the idea of trying to change one's mindset, once he's accustomed to doing things a certain way. Change is always met with resistance, and the various lines of texts, are satirical examples, which could be used as excuses, in order to resist change. Everyone, both children and adults, will enjoy both the humor in each line of text, and the lively illustrations. Olga Mullings was born in New Roads, Westmoreland, Jamaica West Indies. She is the seventh child, born to Alton and Viris Mullings, in a very huge family. She received her formal education, at the Enfield All-Age School, Westmoreland, and attended West Indies College Mandeville, now Northern Caribbean University, (NCU), where she completed a three year course of study in Teacher Education. Olga is married with three children, and migrated to the United States of America in 1987. She has been teaching in the NYC. Dept of Education for 21 years, and enjoys teaching children, but takes special pride in the teaching of reading. This gave her an incentive to write children's books, especially rhymes, which encourages children to read and make it easier for them to decode. Olga is a firm believer that the sky is the limit, therefore, she is always improving herself. As a result, she is the holder of a B. A. Degree from Empire State College, a M.S. Degree from Brooklyn College, a S.D.A. Certificate from N.Y.S. Education Department, with studies completed at Mass. College of Liberal Arts, and a Literacy Leaders Certificate from Teachers College. This summer, she completed a PhD from Northwestern Theological Seminary, with a concentration in Divinity. Finally, Olga was born with an insatiable appetite for writing, and finds tremendous pleasure in doing so. She sees an opportunity to write in almost everything, and has the ability to compose a rhyme, a book or a poem out of just about anything. She also wrote three other books, namely: "My Shadow is a Copy Cat" Jerry and Sherry" and "Squirrel Race." She is available for book-signing events at bookstores, libraries, schools, churches, amusement centers, etc, upon invitation and appointment.

  • Don't Count Your Chickens Before They Are Hatched Because

    Olga M. Fyne

    Paperback (Avid Readers Publishing Group, July 7, 2010)
    This book is satirical in nature, and is appropriate for both children and adult audience. To the adult, the title (Aesop's Fable) actually speaks for itself, because it is criticizing the idea of being sure of things, before seeing them actually materialize, or expecting the ideal conditions for things to happen in the future. Children, although they might not quite understand the fable, will enjoy the humor in each line of text, and the lively accompanying illustrations.
