BLAKEE THE BALD EAGLE

About the Book

Once upon a time, there was a Father Eagle, a Mother Eagle and six baby eagle eggs. The six baby eagle eggs were in a nest built by Father and Mother Eagle. The eagle's nest was in an old oak tree. This old oak tree was next to a large lake. The lake was called Lake Erie. Lake Erie had lots of fish swimming in its water all year round. There were big fish, little fish, and very tiny fish.

About the Author

My name is Melvin Neal Edwards. I am a new author/writer of children’s books. I was born on July 31, 1959, in New York City. I am the fifth child out of six. I lived in New York City for most of my life and have relocated to upstate New York since 1987. I am happily married with six children and one grandson. I worked for the New York State Department of Correctional Services for twenty-seven years. All my life, I tried to keep out of trouble so I would not end up in jail, but I ended up there anyway. I have since retired, and I am currently working as a school bus driver. It’s a great job. I love working with children. I am learning how to be a mentor in life and to be a positive role model to the young adults. I always inform the students when I am picking them up for school in the school bus, ladies first. The young female students love this. I also praise the young men for their cooperation. I truly hope you enjoy my books. Melvin Neal Edwards
