The Misadventures of Hobart Hucklebuck

Things are not as they should be in Pennywhistle. Enchanted toasters are not toasting, enchanted sprinklers are not sprinkling, and Hobart Hucklebuck's origami messenger birds are suddenly attacking him. Someone seems to be draining the power from all of the enchanted items in the village. But who could it be, and why have they implicated Hobart's grandfather?

Hobart Hucklebuck looked out the window. There was his 103-year-old grandfather, hanging upside down from a Tallyho tree reading a comic book. And that was just the beginning. Colonel Screevy Scuttlebutt thinks giant gophers are invading the town, Pernacious Prattfall thinks pirates left treasure in the Pennywhistle Park pond, and—hold on to your garters—is that Quoquandriak the halfling wearing a tutu? Someone is at it again, and things look bleak for the citizens of Pennywhistle! But here come Hobart Hucklebuck and his friends. Can they save the village one more time?

Rain, Snow, Sleet or Hail? Well, if you live in the village of Pennywhistle, you just might see all of those in the same day! Add in lightning storms, tornadoes and perhaps a skiddle-skaddle skunk, and you have the third installment of the Hobart Hucklebuck fantasy series.
