About this title

Synopsis

In a society fond of the four R's: Reading, 'Riting, 'Rithmetic, and Reproduction, Cheerfully Childless brings cheer to those leaning toward a child-free life. Created by author Ellen Metter and artist Loretta Gomez.

Do you have pals who think any children in the home should have names like Frisky and Scout?  They'll love this affirming and thoughtful gift.

About the Author

With the attention span of an infant (BRIGHT COLOR! WOW!) the author has tried out professions ranging from stand-up comedian, mystery shopper, tape editor, dishwasher, radio DJ, and research librarian.  Her latest book adventure is the  soft sci fi tale Transference. Remarkably, no children are featured.
