Jerry Showman, author of Alice & Herman the Bedbug


“I only started using a computer less than 1 yr ago and my computer skills are still very lacking. When I found out that mostly all of our communication was going to be on a computer, my heart really sank. However with Colleen’s great patience with me we managed to get thru it all and get my book published. Now, just practice the same patience with me and help me make this a best seller, as I have lots more Alice & Herman stories to tell and maybe even a novel about my time in the U.S. Navy. Looking forward to working with you guys for a long time. Thanks.”

Jerry Showman and his wife, Shirley, have been married 48 years and have two daughters and four grandchildren. A storyteller all his life, he delighted his daughters and grandchildren and they suggested he put them in writing so future generations could enjoy them. Eventually he decided to publish them so children everywhere could join in on the adventures. Collector’s edition first in the series Bug 1

ALICE & HERMAN: The Adventures Begin

The bedtime stories of Alice and Herman began when our daughters were little girls. I created the adventures about Alice, a lonely 4 yr. old that needed a friend and a magical bedbug named Herman. He befriended Alice and took her on adventures she could never have imagined. After Alice magically shrunk to Herman’s size, they flew off atop Buddha Bird all over town with Gracie Grasshopper and Adam Ant. As new adventures unfold, Herman will bring along more friends for those magical trips. My girls looked forward to these adventures, and years later our four grandchildren were caught up in them just as their Moms were. So, come along and enjoy the fun and friendship that develops between these most unusual characters.Outskirts Press Review
