Benji and Iggie: The Magic of Friendship

By Ben Kohler

While walking with his grandpa, Benji comes across a little eagle. They become friends. Together they do magic and take readers along with Benji's finger puppet friends on adventures. They put out a fire, dream of hot dogs, solve mysteries, play games with friends who eat cupcakes without using their hands, fly everywhere, get the foot fairy to bring a funny gift to grandpa, meet the ticklebug, rescue Iggie from being sick and even help Santa solve a big problem, and much more in these fifteen short stories.

Author Ben Kohler went on his own adventure when he started writing and then reading on Facetime one hundred Iggie stories to grandson Benji during the difficult two years of the Covid pandemic. He includes a message for adults to encourage their children to join in telling the stories by asking easy questions like ". . . and then what happens?" Then, Kohler encourages adults to sit back and listen to children's imaginations as young readers unlock the magic of friendship and storytelling.
