CC Native Barbara Williams Ryan Publishes Children's Book


Blue Bob 

 The Mysterious Monster on Gingerbread Lane 

The Shivering Citizens of Sprinkleville live together in their snowy forest town. Every Christmas, though, strange sounds and noisy noises bounce out of the forest, nearly scaring their sprinkles off! This year, they are more determined than ever to rid their peaceful town of the frightening monster. With some new friends, the snowmen (and snowwomen) face their fears and venture into the forest beyond the end of Gingerbread Lane. The truth about their noisy neighbor turns out to be the biggest surprise of all. 

The citizens of Sprinkleville 

A little bit about the Author 

Barbara Williams Ryan was born and raised in beautiful Cameron County, tucked in the mountains of North Central Pennsylvania. She and her family lived in Oakland County, Michigan for a few years in the 1990's, but returned to their Cameron County roots for a simple, wonderful life. She is a recently retired RN after a 36 year career. Known to her six, soon to be seven, grandchildren as BeBe, her greatest pleasure in life is time with her husband, three children and their spouses, and grandchildren. It was during one of these times spent together that this story was created. Barbara and her grandkids named the snowmen as they were decorated, and Blue Bob was born. All illustrations are cookies decorated by the kids and arranged by the author.
