Author, Poet and Singer,
Darrell House
Darrell House is a children's author/poet/storyteller/singer/songwriter/musician/recording artist, and his love for the lyrics and melodies of folk & acoustic music of the 60's and 70's has become the foundation for a lifetime of performances. His deep mellow voice and fluent guitar styles have made him a standout performer in S. Florida for nearly 40 years, and during the last twenty years he has dedicated his creative energies to writing music, poetry and stories for kids and families.
An author who visits schools and libraries, nationwide, his picture books, Miller the Green Caterpillar and The King Of Fish, encourage kids to set goals and work to achieve their dreams while his hit children’s CDs, Underneath the Cushions on the Couch and Makes Me Feel Like Singing, have received rave reviews in newspapers and national magazines.
The Parents' Choice Foundation honored his 2010 collection of original, humorous poetry, Speed-B-B-B-Bumps, with their Gold Award and, recently, The King of Fish was recognized as The 2012 Best Published Children's Picture Book by The Florida Writers Association in their annual Royal Palm Literary Awards.
