Excerpt
The sky turns to dark, in the bright of the day,
And rumble and grumble then suddenly give way,
To a blanket of raindrops that fall to the ground,
And flood out his hole, Hamilton could drown!
When this happens Hamilton will run.
He runs to a safe place until it is done.
He leaps over flowers and skips around trees,
‘Till he finds his safe place where he falls to his knees.
A place that he calls the ‘Hide Away Flop’
Where he goes every time the sky tries to drop.

Happily Surprised
I bought this book for my 8 year old granddaughter - a reluctant reader. I was happily surprised by her reaction. Hamilton captured her imagination as she read and re-read the story aloud, pointing out to me the definition of "transplant" inserted at the bottom of one page. She's anxiously waiting on the next adventure. ~ Janeil A.
