By this post's heading, you're probably expecting a long, mushy message about my husband (whom I DO
love) but I'm afraid another fellow has also captured my heart. His name
is Cooper Clark, and I have to admit, I'm quite smitten with him.
Cooper is full of opinions and ideas! In his first adventure (book # 2 is in the works) he comes up with one zany plan after another in order to avoid facing his fear of dragons. Some of his plans will be recognized by young readers as things they themselves have tried. Others are unique. Here's what happens:
Cooper Clark's world takes
an alarming turn when his regular babysitter gets a new job.
Arrangements are then made for Cooper to spend his after-school hours
with old Mrs. Mulligan — a plan he does not care for one bit! Everyone
knows that Mrs. Mulligan has a real live dragon in her basement and
although he has kept his fears secret, Cooper is very afraid of dragons.
Not willing to expose his secret, Cooper does his best to find a way to avoid Mrs. Mulligan's dreadful pet .
It isn't until he runs out of ideas that
Cooper makes a most important discovery.
This is my first chapter book. I hope you love it as much as these reviewers did -- or even more!
