Produktbeschreibung

Some parents shouldn't be allowed to name their children. Take for example Billings' business man, Jim Dandy and his wife known as Fine-and Dandy. They named their children Andy Dandy, Brandy Dandy, and Candy Dandy. As Maddy found out, the children had learned how to be bullies. Devil names can be problematic too. Take, for example, the Billings devil named Wytlss. Was he witless to begin with or did he become witless because of the name? You'll find out soon enough. He was the one who made Maddy disappear.

When the Wilizy learned that the Dandy children had attacked Maddy three against one, they began researching the Dandy family and found lots of slimy, bullying actions. Melissa devised a plan to attack Dandy where he would be hurt the most and Cowboy did the hurting in his capacity as Captain of the Billings police force. Molly Moonblossom and Fanny Fandigity worked as his investigators.

Winnie was severely constrained in how she could help because Wytlss' status as a devil could not be revealed to the family. Heaven and Hell do not exist, remember? There's a saying: You can only die once. Well, that wasn't Wytlss' experience. You may be wondering about the title of the book and the image on the cover: I am happy to tell you that Reese enjoyed Valentines' Day in a way he never would have expected. A new Wilizy hero had emerged. Go ahead. Guess who she was.

Autorenporträt

David Wighton is a retired educator who enjoys writing youth novels when he's not on a basketball court coaching middle-school girls. The books in his Wilizy series peek at how people lived after the word's governments collapsed in the chaos that followed the catastrophic rise in ocean levels and the disappearance of the world's last deposits of oil. Luckily today, in the 2080s, the citizens of Alberta are safe because their It's Only Fair society uses brain-bands to zap people whenever they break a rule. That way, all children grow up knowing the difference between right and wrong. Unfortunately, they're also taught that women's ankles need to be covered so that men can't see them and turn into perverts. Plus, no-one in Alberta can have babies any more because the government manufactures them in a way that ensures that no child has an unfair advantage over any other child. All of this makes sense to Alberta's dictator, but not to Will and Izzy two teenagers who are decidedly different from everyone else.

Wighton's novels have strong teenage characters driving the plot and facing challenges that, in many respects, are no different from what teenagers face today. His novels are intended to entertain and readers will find adventure, romance, suspense, humour, a strong focus on family, plus a touch of whimsy. Wighton also writes to provoke a little thought about life in today's societies and what the future might bring. Teachers may find the series useful in the classroom and the novels are priced with that intent in mind.
