It's me again, Hank the Cowdog. As I recall, it was the 14th of May when the silver monster bird swooped down on the ranch and threatened us with death and destruction. Or was it May 15th? Could have been the 16th. Anyway...Sliver monster birds are huge creatures with a body that's long and skinny, resembles the body of a snake, which makes me think they might be a cross-breed between a bird and a reptile. The head sort of confirms that, because it has a sharp noes and two wicked eyes. In other words, it ain't your usual bird head. Oh yes, did I mention that they don't have a beak?

No beak whatsoever. That's a pretty important clue right there. It ain't natural. Show me a bird without a beak and I've got some questions to ask him. Another thing about the silver monster birds is that they have shinny feathers-not your usual dull brown or glossy black, but bright, shiny silver feathers. And a lot of the monster birds will have a white marking on the side which resembles a star. They have big drooping wings with several things growing out of the underside. I call them "things" because I don't have a technical term for them yet.

Long story short he got whooped. The author and illustration biography said "John R. Erickson began writing stories in 1967 while working full time as a cowboy, farmhand, and ranch manager in Texas and Oklahoma-where two of the dogs were Hank and his sidekick Drover. Hank the Cowdog made his debut a long time ago in the pages of The Cattleman, a magazine about cattle for adults. Soon after, Erickson began receiving "Dear Hank" letters and realized that many of his eager fans were children. The Hank the Cowdog series won Erickson a Publishers Weekly "Listen Up" Award for Best Humor in Audio. He also received an Audie from the Audio Publishers Association for Outstanding Children's Series. The author of more than thirty-five books, Erickson lives with his wife, Kris, and their three children on a ranch near his boyhood home of Perryton, Texas. Gerald L. Holmes met John Erickson after moving to Perryton, Texas, a long time ago...and that's when Hank and his pals came to life for the first time in pictures. Mr. Holmes has illustrated numerous cartoons and textbooks in addition to the Hank the Cowdog series." In book 2 in 1983. To go to the website is http://www.hankthecowdog.com.

Summary of Great Communicator The Story of Ronald Reagan

The pages are p. 1-128 it have ch. 1-12. I like this good book and it is by Jeff C. Young. If you want to check out this book go to the library and pick it up.

Ronald Wilson Reagan was born in Tampico, Illinois, on February 6, 1911. With a population of only 849 people, Tampico did not have a doctor, so Ronald's mother went through labor in the family's apartment above the general store Ronald's father managed. The midwife informed Ronald's mother her baby was breach and would be born feet forward. This was a dangerous situation. Fortunately, a physician who had been stranded in Tampico by a snowstorm the day before was able to come over and deliver the ten-pound baby. It was Ronald's large size that reminded his father of a fat and prosperous Dutchman, and the nickname Dutch stuck from birth. His father, John Edward Reagan, was a handsome, athletic man most people knew as Jack. He worked in retail sales as a shoe salesman and store clerk.

He was a good-hearted and intelligent man who struggled his entire life with an alcohol problem. He was not abusive to his family, but there were frequent job and address changes. Between the ages of six and ten, Ronald attended a different school every year. Reagan's mother, Nelle Wilson, met Jack while shopping. They were married in 1904. Their first son, John Neil, was born in 1909. Jack was Catholic and insisted that Neil be baptized in the same faith.

Long story short Nelle was an active member of the Disciples of Christ church. The author does not have a biography about him. To go to the website is http://www.ronaldreagan.com.

Summary of Hank The Cowdog: The Original Adventures of Hank the Cowdog

The pages are p. 1-133 it have ch. 1-12. I like this good book and it is by John R. Erickson. If you want to check out this book go to the library and pick it up.

It's me again, Hank the Cowdog, I just got some terrible news. There's been a murder on the ranch. I know I shouldn't blame myself. I mean, a dog is only a dog. He can't be everywhere at once. When I took this job as Head of Ranch Security, I knew that I was only flesh and blood, four legs, a tail, a couple of ears, a pretty nice kind of nose that the women really go for, two bushels of hair and another half bushel of Mexican sandburs. You add that all up and you don't get Superman, just me, good old easygoing Hank who works hard, tries to do this job, and gets very little cooperation from anyone else around here. I'm not complaining.

I knew this wouldn't be an easy job. It took a special kind of dog-strong, fearless, dedicated, and above all, smart. Obviously Drover didn't fit. The job fell on my shoulders. It was my destiny. I couldn't escape the broom of history that swept through...anyway, I took the job. Head of Ranch Security. Glee, I was proud of that title.

Long story short he left and came back. The author biography said "John R.

Summary of Captain Underpants And The Wrath Of The Wicked Wedgie Woman

The pages are p. 1-176 it have forward and ch. 1-29. I like this good book and it an epic novel by Dav Pilkey. If you want to check out this book go to the library and pick it up.

This is George Beard and Harold Hutchins. George is the kid on the left with the tie and the flat-top. Harold is the one on the right with the T-shirt and the bad haircut. Remember that now. At most schools, the teachers try to emphasize "the three Rs" (Reading, 'Riting, and 'Rithmetic). But George and Harold's teacher Ms. Ribble was more concerned with enforcing what she called "the three Ss" (Sit down, Shut your pie holes, and STOP DRIVING ME CRAZY!) While this was unfortunate for all of her students, it was especially bad for George and Harold, because they were very imaginative boys. You see, imagination was not really encouraged at George and Harold's school-in fact, it was discouraged.

"Imagination" would only get you a one-way ticket to the principal's office. This was sad for George and Harold, because they didn't get straight As, they weren't sports stars, and they could barely walk down the hallway without getting into trouble....See what I mean?!!? But George and Harold had one thing that most of the other folks at Jerome Horwitz Elementary School didn't have: Imagination. They were full of it! And one day they would use that imagination to save the entire human race from being overthrown by a crazed woman with even crazier super powers. In chapter 2 said One fine day, George and Harold's homeroom teacher, Ms. Ribble, entered the classroom looking a bit meaner than usual. In chapter 3 said Ms. Ribble went around the classroom handing out envelopes, sheets of construction paper, and butterfly stencils to all of the children. Then she wrote a poem on the chalkboard.

Long story short she made Robots called Robo-George and the Harold 2000. The author biography said "He has written and illustrated numerous popular, award-winning books for children. The Adventures of Captain Underpants, which has more than a million copies in print, was an American Bookseller Pick of the Lists and a Publishers Weekly "Cuffie" Award winner of the Funniest Book of the Year; Dog Breath was awarded the California Young Reader Medal; The Paperboy was chosen as a Caldecott Honor Book; and his four latest Captain Underpants books were all national bestsellers in their first weeks of publication. Dav Pilkey also illustrated the IRA-CBC Children's Choice Award-winning Dumb Bunnies books. He and his dog live in Portland, Oregon." In book 5 in September 2001.

Summary of Captain Underpants And The Preposterous Plight Of The Purple Potty People

The pages are p. 1-176 it have forward and ch. 1-32. I like this good book and it an epic novel by Dav Pilkey. If you want to check out this book go to the library and pick it up.

This is George Beard and Harold Hutchins. George is the skeleton on the right with the tie and the flat-top. Harold is the one on the left with the T-shirt and the bad haircut. Remember that now. As you might remember from our last adventure, George and Harold had recently made the horrifying mistake of trying to pass through a synthetic time warp without letting the C-2X906 super-bimflimanatrix drive of their beebleflux-capacitating zossifyer cool down, thus creating a sub-paradoxical, dimensionalistic alternicon-shift, which opened up a hyper-googliphonic screen door into a sub-omnivating ultra-zinticular bio-nanzonoflanamarzipan. To put it in scientific terms, they screwed up. But don't get all freaked out because everybody looks like a skeleton. X-ray beams are a normal by-product of inter-dimensional reality shifting.

George, Harold, and their loyal pets suddenly found themselves wishing that they had never set foot inside the petrifying Purple Potty that was about to send them all on a journey into the hoffifying abyss of the unknown...a journey that would probably spell impending doom for themselves, and would most likely bring about the end of our civilization as we know it. In chapter 2 said It's been said that adults spend the first two years of their children's lives trying to make them walk and talk and the next sixteen years trying to get them to sit down and shut up. It's the same way with potty training: Most adults spend the first few years of a child's life cheerfully discussing pee and poopies, and how important it is to learn to put your pee-pee and poo-poo in the potty like big people do. But once children have mastered the art of toilet training, they are immediately forbidden to ever talk about poop, pee, toilets, and other bathroom-related subjects again. Such things are suddenly considered rude and vulgar, and are no longer rewarded with praise and cookies and juice boxes. One day you're a superstar because you pooped in the toilet like a big boy, and the next day you're sitting in the principal's office because you said the world "poopy" in American History class (which, if you ask me, is the perfect place to say that word). You're probably wondering, "Why would adults do that? Why would they encourage something one day and discourage it the next?"

Long story short the next adventure is Captain Underpants And The Terrifying Return, Of Tippy Tinkletrousers. The author biography said "He has written and illustrated numerous popular, award-winning books for children. The Adventures of Captain Underpants, which has more than three million copies in print, was an American Bookseller Pick of the Lists and a Publishers Weekly "Cuffie" Award winner of the Funniest Book of the Year; Dog Breath was awarded the California Young Reader Medal; The Paperboy was chosen as a Caldecott Honor Book; and his' latest Captain Underpants books were all national bestsellers in their first week of publication. Dav is also the creator of the IRA-CBC Children's Choice Award-winning Dumb Bunnies books and the author of the Ricky Ricotta's Mighty Robot series. He lives with his wife on an island in the Pacific Northwest." In book 8 in September 2006. To go to the website is http://www.pilkey.com and http://www.scholastic.com/captainunderpants/
