    About this ebook

    Childrens stories: This is NOT your usual Oliver and Jumpy book, but for early readers with more reading and less pictures.
    Oliver is an elegant tuxedo cat, who is full of himself. As a matter of fact he says: “I love myself!”, quite often. Naughty, isn’t he? But his best friend Jumpy, a kangaroo lady, is aware that he has a soft heart and will always want to help others. The great thing is Jumpy’s pouch, which Oliver loves to ride in! He calls her his kangaroo taxi! These little bedtime stories with their lovely illustrations are great for small kids. A parent can read the text and tell the child in his own words. These animal stories have sufficient text to keep early readers happy and provide some educational value. Love you all! Meow!
    Story 58: Down the Well – A frog gets philosophical.
    Story 59: Finding the Story – Do you like to write a story? First you need to find one!
    Story 60: Story Writing – A funny way to write stories.
    Story 61: What a Laugh! - Laughing is healthy.
    Story 62: What's the Time? - A very unusual way to look at time.

    Werner Stejskal

    Born in Vienna, Austria, Werner is now living in Perth, Australia with his wife, two married children, and three grandchildren. He worked many years in the printing industry and later for the United Nations in Vienna. After an eventful life, now retired, he began to write children's stories, had them illustrated through Upwork, narrated them himself for YouTube and finally published the ebooks on most platforms. Werner's dream is to see "Oliver and Jumpy" animated as a TV series. There are lots of fairy tales and bedtime stories around and many of them quite violent. This made Werner decide to write something different. On a flight from Europe to Australia, he watched the movie Magic on Belle Island with Morgan Freeman, where Freeman teaches a little girl to have imagination and write her first story. This inspired Werner as well and the first stories with his two characters Oliver, the elegant tomcat, and Jumpy, his kangaroo lady friend, made their appearance. Some very capable illustrators have helped to create this picture book series.

      “Down the Well” Oliver dreams about a frog who lives in the well. “Finding the Story” was about one of Oliver’s stories he keeps in a jar in his cupboard. One day the jar is broken and the story runs away because she doesn’t want to be written down.“Story Writing” Oliver tells the reader about writing stories and where he gets his ideas and how much help he gets from his pen named Penny.“What a Laugh” Oliver tells us more about the land he lives in named Sillandia were everyone is silly. The police actually looks for serious people to throw them out.“What’s the Time” All the clocks in Sillandia tell a different time. This makes life in Sillandia quite exciting.I received a copy to facilitate my review. The opinions expressed here are my own.

      Oliver and Jumpy stories start with few words and many pictures. But now the series nears its end, with fewer pictures and many words. It seems appropriate as you imagine a child growing up with these tales, and the pictures are still delightful. Plus the stories are fun.Kitty in the well gets a whole new spin when Oliver’s new friend Froggy wants a wife, but the growing child might wonder, where do stories really come from. Oliver tells of “a cupboard filled with bottles containing unwritten stories.” An imaginative child will soon be new cupboards, new tales, new words.A lovely Christmas scene in the penultimate tale makes this a particularly good volume for Christmas giving. And descriptions of Sillandia’s silliness are delightful. Enjoy!Disclosure: I’ve followed the series for ages. And I offer my honest review.
