Katie's Poems

KATHLEEN IDA SAUNDERS

Born 13th January 1915. Died 23rd November 1988.

An unpublished book produced through the late 1930's to the early 1940's for children of all ages, with illustrations and poetry by the late Katie Saunders, nee Church, mother of Carey and Richard Saunders. Richard has tried, as far as possible, to lay out these web pages in the fashion of the book itself, as it is believed Katie would have wanted. Thanks go to Carey, and their father John Saunders, for helping to date the manuscript, and for their support in this project.

Carey Saunders has written a small piece inspired by memories of his mother. Read it here.
