BUT all good things come to those who wait. And this wait was well worth it because Lenora Rodgers' latest work Zeke & Zak Fumble Through: A Fairy Long Lesson with illustrations by Terry C. Wise (Published via PS Publishing) started out as an adorable little story that has grown into a fabulous beginning of a series that's sure to please kids and the parents who read along with them. (But maybe they might decide to put teeth destined for the Tooth Fairy on the nightstand with a big sign that says 'THIS IS MY TOOTH' just in case Zak and Zeke are on duty the night the Tooth Fairy is scheduled to make a visit!) |
