Necks Out For Adventure: The True Story of Edwin Wiggleskin
By Timothy Basil Ering
What if a tiny wiggleskin dared to leave his shell and stick his neck out?
For as long as anyone could remember, the wiggleskins have lived by a simple rule: necks out to eat, and necks in to hide. But then comes the dreadful day when all the wiggleskins are ripped from their holes and taken away -- all but a brave little wiggleskin named Edwin. To save his mum and the rest of the clan, Edwin must shuck his shell and adopt a new rule: Necks out for adventure!
- Timothy Basil Ering’s boisterous and warmhearted adventure will have you cheering for Edwin -- and for plucky souls everywhere who dare stick their necks out.
- A warm, whimsical tale from the illustrator of "The Tale of Despereaux".
