Grandpa Hates the Bird Series
GRANDPA HATES THE BIRD: Big Mistake
“I began my morning with a good long sing perched on the curtain rod in Mother and Father’s bedroom. It’s a cheerful, sunny spot and so high up that no one ever notices the droppings I leave behind.”
While Joseph and Maya are at school, Bird roams the neighborhood with best friends Humphrey the giant dog and Slick the albino python. When they find a mangy, snaggle-tooth kitten caught in a tree, Bird thinks “predator,” Humphrey thinks “annoying,” Slick thinks “lunch” and Grandpa thinks “My Fluffy!” Who’s right?
Why is Slick so cranky?
Will kind Humphrey accidently crush the tiny kitten in his huge slavering jaws?
Can Grandpa climb a tree?
Is the kitten really an embodiment of evil?
Join Bird and his animal friends in this death-defying fifth short story adventure in the Grandpa Hates the Bird series. Plus, find out the real story behind why Grandpa hates Bird!
GRANDPA HATES THE BIRD: Aw Shoot
“Every so often, Joseph and Maya have ‘”Special Time'” with Grandpa. ‘Special Time,’ I have determined, is when a child spends time alone with an adult doing something the adult thinks the child will enjoy. To my great surprise, Joseph and Maya actually look forward to these outings. In the past, ‘Special Time’ with Grandpa has included attending the Hats Off to Horror film festival, a trip to the local sewage processing plant, and sock shopping—for Grandpa.”
This time, Bird, Joseph and Maya have Special Time with Grandpa at an archery range. With real bows and arrows. And live targets.
Will Bird be able to save his fine feathered friends?
Where did Hop the dog get his name?
When Maya plays Hide-and-Seek with her stuffed bunny, who wins?
