In
this poetry and short story collection, fact and fantasy are cleverly
combined to create a light-hearted look at the wild side of life in the
coastal marshlands of South Carolina-through the eyes of the animals
themselves.
Marsh Rat Annie relies on her years of experience in caring for and
raising young animals and uses her imagination and knowledge to
personify marsh critters, making it easy and fun for others to live
right along with them as they interact and survive within the vibrant
voice of the marshlands.

Roam
the bog with curious raccoons, fly with the vultures, swim with an
alligator, and dance across the sand with tiny fiddler crabs. |
As each animal shows off its lively spirit,
others will experience the fierceness of a hurricane, stand with the
animals against a vicious foe, and share the peace and magic of a
Christmas night with a few furry creatures.
For anyone ready to kick off their shoes, squish their toes in the
pluff mud, and prepare themselves for a boisterous romp across the
South Carolina low-country marshes, these critters and a silly ol'
Marsh Rat share an entertaining view of the animal world.
