Nice Birthday Party, Governor (Wilizy, #17) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book continues the Wilizy's efforts to bring justice to the Denver Cattleman's Association, the DCA. Cowboy and his disguises were instrumental in discovering the truth about them. Winnie in her almost a costume was key to catching individual DCA members in the act. What act that was is too spicy to be shared now.

With the DCA members out of the picture, the Wilizy simply had to turn the population against the governor of Colorado and reveal him for what he and the DCA have done. Easy, peasy. In a Winnie-directed dramatic production, Lohla and Lylah pretended to be basketball groupies entranced by a descendant of a basketball icon. Marie pretended to be a gun-toting sharpshooter while Doc got to limp and lisp at the same time. If anybody were hungry, Bob, the visible dragon, was heating up a tasty lunch.

In a second story line, Eleanor, the banker lady from Book #13, was delegated by the Swiss prime minister to defend the country from terrorists seeking Switzerland's gold and jewels. Her forces consisted of twelve tourist paddle boats on land-locked Lac Leman. Not to worry. Led by Jock, Hank, and Mac, the whole Wilizy family was ready to take on NORAD's entire fleet of armed copters and its silos of nuclear missiles.

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.
