Publisher Info
Cedar Fort. InquiryThere I stood, hiding next to the vending machines, disguised as a potted plant. I brushed the plastic leaves from my face and stared down the hallway toward the front double doors. Snow Cone always said one day this ridiculous costume would come in handy. Fifteen minutes had passed since the last student left for the buses, but I wasn t about to take any chances. Not with my life hanging in the balance. Leaning forward, I peered around the corner just as the sound of footsteps echoed down the hallway. Was this it? Could this be him? Was I about to be pulverized by Hambone while wearing an emergency disguise I had just pulled from my locker? Hashbrown Winters and his treehouse club of buddies are well known around Pordunce Elementary, especially after Hashbrown s seminar last year on how to give the best show and tell performances... er, presentations. But when Hashbrown accidentally crosses Hambone Oxcart, the death dealer of Pordunce, he ll need more than just the support of his friends to survive Hambone s wrath. Join Hashbrown, Snow Cone, Whiz, and the rest of the gang in Frank Cole s hilarious debut novel of the trials and tragedies of fifth grade life. The Adventures of Hashbrown Winters will keep kids and parents alike laughing out loud, groaning in sympathy, and turning pages until well past bedtime.
Book Review and Awards
"Frank is a wizard; he's a fantastic story teller who can turn the ordinary into gold and make me thrilled to read about every second of it. This is a great book. Sure it's got page numbers and chapters, and those things are cool, but most importantly, it has one great story--read it." - Obert Skye, international bestselling author of Leven Thumps "The moment Flinton "Hashbrown" Winters smashes a dog-sized, talking cockroach with his lucky marble, you know this will not be a typical adventure. Hashbrown, Snow Cone, Four Hips, Whiz, and the rest of his friends will have you laughting out loud. Frank L. Cole has created a wonderfully funny story with enough twists and turns to keep children and adults glued to their seats." - J. Scott Savage, author of the Farworld series
