Surprise

By: Robert James Karpie

Narrated by: Graham Mack

In a world full of turmoil, our children are being cheated, not to mention, mentally, physically and sexually abused. Confronted with WWIII, nuclear annihilation, and massacres in our schools, coping is but a struggle on a daily basis. Is it any wonder then; a state of denial? Are our children not being desensitized by violence, numbed as a way of coping by accepting violence itself as routine? What's happening to our social and family values? What about good old-fashioned fun—nature, fishing, horsing around, and worms?

Did you ever see a worm after a heavy rain, crawling, helplessly lost on a long wet sidewalk, knowing, just waiting—anticipating being baked alive by our hot sun? Did you ever stop and help at least one? Try it, you might get a surprise. Maybe he’ll poop in your hand for luck. Oops, brew-ha-ha—Oouey Gooey!

This book carries a message of hope as it presents an opportunity, with interactive substance, to make a difference if you are willing to accept the challenge. It is both captivating and compelling as it demonstrates family and social values—little lessons in life. Surprise will move and inspire both child and parent as it entertains the simple joys of life—fun, nature, fishing, horsing around, and worms, which leads to the ultimate surprise as Oouey prepares to make the world a better place for all to live in!
