Luckey Haskins

When every day can appear ordinary to a young child, it takes a little magic to make it an adventure. Luckey Haskins is a boy to whom magical things happen on very ordinary days. When Luckey and his Mom go to the zoo on a hot summer day, adventure follows when Luckey's wish turns into reality, and something unexpected happens. Discover the magic that turns mischievous shadows and monkey business into a surprise that changes Luckey forever! From the author: "When these stories were first told, it was to the my children at bedtime. We invented them together. I created the character, they suggested the situation. I've carried these stories in my heart for many years, and now that my children are grown, want to share them with you." And so began a series of stories about a little boy who loved to jump. It didn't matter that he was a boy (like our first born); our daughter loved the stories just as much. Luckey Haskins stories are kid tested and parent approved. Telling stories with only words encouraged our children to use their imagination. I hope these words, your voice, and the pictures we've drawn from Luckey's world encourage your child to use their imagination. With interactive questions and unbelievable situations (or so they seem), this story will encourage your child to use their imagination (and maybe, just maybe) unlock yours. Reading it is a fun experience, whether it's at story time or bedtime. Luckey Haskins and the Zoo Adventure includes whimsical illustrations by Ned Bustard.
