The Adventures of Succotash and Sookey, the Ostrich: Book One, Honey's Oak

By Candy St. James

The Adventures of Succotash and Sookey, the Ostrich is about an "unlikely" mix of forest animals who live in an old hollowed-out oak tree affectionately called Honey's Oak, located on the outskirts of the Hunnicut Farm. Their daily adventure leads them on a chase along the river's edge and to a discovery that takes them half way around the world. On a fun-filled mission to help their new-found friend, Sookey, the Ostrich, return to Kookaburra, his home on an Australian wild-life preserve, the Succotash Gang encounters such dangers as being chased by a mean old Boar, beguiled by a crafty sly Fox, threatened by the Dingo Brothers and outwitting old Pete, a territorial and cranky old Crocodile. While meeting new friends along the way, their exciting journey is filled with life lessons that will, hopefully, have a lasting and positive effect on children that will make this world a better place.ENDORSEMENT: The Adventures of Succotash and Sookey, the Ostrich is an enchanting tale of animal friends. The book also introduces children to animals native to Australia with examples of life lessons on friendship, problem solving, teamwork, helping others and avoiding bullies. It is written in an easy to understand manner for reading aloud or for advanced young readers. Sue (Eshbach) Borders Director, Darby Public LibraryDarby, Pennsylvania
