Welcome to Charlie’s House! Get your free child book & fun club.



Hi I’m Jonnie Simone, I have a free child book for you, and I’d like to welcome you all to the wonderful world of Charlie and the Yums, a series of beautifully illustrated bedtime stories designed for the parent and child to read and enjoy together.

As well as Charlie’s hilarious adventures in Yumsville, there’s also the Yums Club, a free monthly club with lots of coloring pictures, puzzles and competitions with Charlie’s special prizes for all our winners.

Each story varies between fifteen to twenty pages in length and is accompanied by high quality illustrations making the story easy to follow for our younger readers. As well as being humorous, educational and entertaining, each illustrated child book has an underlying message of true friendship and Christian values, making it suitable for preschool, younger school kids and even as a baby book.


The first story

‘The Fabulous Sock’

Is a free downloadable and printable e-book, which requires the, ‘Adobe Reader’, software. You can download, ‘The Fabulous Sock’, and read a brief synopsis of the story by visiting the Charlie and the Yums page.







The second story

'The Cheeky Chunky Singing Pirates'

Will soon be availabe, in hard copy. Just visit the, 'Cheeky Chunky Pirates', page for an insight of all the treats to come.




NOTE. If you do not have Adobe Reader, you can download it for free by using the link also found on the, ‘Charlie and the Yums’, page.


The' Yums Club', is a child book club with a difference, it’s actually completely free. There are no hidden catches and you will not be asked to make a purchase of any kind to qualify for membership; it’s purely for the little ones. Every month we’ll send you lots of coloring pictures based on the illustrations from the books making it easy for the kids to follow the color scheme. There will also be puzzles and contests, painting by numbers, and every month we’ll be holding a special competition with lots of wonderful prizes. To join The Yums Club, simply follow the instructions, found on the, ‘Yums Club', page.


'Writing For Kids', has always been my greatest dream, but like anything else these days it is extremely competitive and getting your foot in anyone’s door is almost impossible. If indeed you share my passion and would like to know more about writing a child book, baby book or illustrated picture book, click on, ‘Writing For Kids’. You can also check out all my other writing style sections, where you'll find lots of additional information on, creative, descriptive, power and persuasive writing techniques.


Finally, getting an Internet Business started has never been easier or cheaper, providing you KNOW HOW! So, for those of you maybe thinking about an Internet Business of your own, find out how I did it and how to avoid all the rip-offs, by visiting the, ‘Winning Formula'.





I’d like to Thank You all for visiting my site and hope to see you all again soon. Please enjoy the free Child Book and club, and don’t forget to keep checking for new books due for release in the very near future.
