Publisher Description: Meet Hooey Higgins -- along with his oddball family and friends -- in a laugh-out-loud madcap adventure loaded with boy appeal. Hooey Higgins is desperately in love -- with the humongous chocolate egg in Mr. Danson's store window, that is. Too bad he and his best friend, Twig, have nowhere near enough money to buy it. But when a shark is spotted off the coast, Hooey and Twig dream up a plan: capture the shark and charge people to view it. Brilliant With Hooey's older brother masterminding the foolproof scheme, they set off with ketchup, a cricket bat, a floral quilt, and a rope in tow. What they find is so amazing it blows the shark plan out of the water Aided by Emma Dodson's comical illustrations, Steve Voake introduces a hilarious new character in a fast-paced story kids will sink their teeth into. |
