Cindy Graves 
Corylianna 
The Quixotic Coat Rack

This is a story about how a young child finds the courage to dream through the example of others and how a father finds the wisdom to support those dreams. As with all the books in the Stories for Children and Their Adults series, this story is written in a delightful sing-song style and can be enjoyed by both children and adults alike, yet it can also be used as a tool to explore deeper issues. Specifically, this story deals with empowerment and possibility while also exploring the boundaries between fantasy and reality.

Über den Autor

Cindy Graves was raised by her children in Utah, after having narrowly missed several unsuccessful attempts by her loving parents and older siblings in Connecticut. There is some debate over whether the last rearage attempt was, indeed, successful, or whether it was yet another failed attempt. When asked why she is the way she is, Cindy smiles sweetly and says, in her most childlike voice, ‚My children raised me this way. . . ‚. We can only assume that the final attempt was successful. As a single mother of four, Cindy studied Applied Mathematics and recieved her Bachelor of Science degree from Weber State University in 1994. She then went on to complete a 23 year career as an SQA Programmer and Analyst. She is currently retired from the technical world, writing poetry and children’s stories, and living in Utah with her mother, 6 dogs, and 3 cats.
