Tony Spooner has inherited the family trait of
twisting words—just like his long-ago cousin,
William Spooner. But for Tony, spoonerisms
aren’t an honor. They’re a nightmare.
When he tries to say “My tough luck,” out comes
“My lough tuck.” And the more nervous or
upset he gets, the more his words flip, warp,
and betray him.
Tony wants to win a trophy—any trophy—but
every time he gets close, a bully steps in, and
Tony’s tongue tangles the moment into disaster.
Until the day the bully pushes him too far… and
Tony’s twisted words unleash chaos—and a clever
way to turn the tables.
Maybe his “curse” has a little power after all.

Nancy Kelly Allen lives in Kentucky, where the accent is Appalachian and words are fun...and often funny. Playing with words is her typical day as she writes children's books. Other days, words sometimes play with her. Ordering "licken chivers" when attempting to say "chicken livers" boosted fun to a funny spoonerism. Nancy has a master's degree in education and another master's degree in library science. Enjoy beading this rook. Oops! Reading this book.
