Roger and His Wonderful Friends - John Michele - Bog

Roger is central to all the characters in this story. He is most unusual because of his abilities and the growing central desire he shares, at first, with one special person, Susan. He is not sure what and where his need to know will take him. But it is there all the time, bugging him.
His quest for answers about his life guides to wonderful turns as he and Susan recognize his awareness, somehow of facts, that he should have no knowledge of until he discovers the influence of many historically important deceased spirits with connections to his home and his town.
He and his young friend Susan share a growing need for answers. She promises to always be in his corner. Roger wants to learn more about her life, which allows her to add stories about herself, family, pets, her town Chester and its people, and the good feelings she has about what life is like in her little town.
Eventually, for both, they must agree to take the necessary hard steps. For early on you will discover that Roger is just a handsome Rhode Island Red Rooster. Yes...a rooster.
Parents will enjoy reading and sharing Roger's journey with their children and so will grandparents, who may renew good memories of other earlier times reading stories to their children. This tale has messages for children and for adults. And Chester is a place where old, important American values are lived every day.
