Howie the Dachshund is writing again although it is proving to be much harder to write a second book than a first book. For this story he begins with the lovely Delilah, she of the golden ears and not much brain, as they are trying to decide what to play today. Suddenly, there is a noise...louder than a lawnmower..what can it be? What if it is aliens and they have come to the planet to turn Delilah into a squirrel? Howie to the rescue. A wry sense of humor peppers the story line and Howie allows us entry to the tortured world of the author as he describes his writing process and its challenging moments. A great vehicle for teaching children to write....start asking questions! Fun and entertaining especially for those young readers who want action and suspense along with a dose of laughs. 96 pages
