    WishapickWishapick: Tickety Boo And The Black Trunk

    Written by M. M. Allen

    Highly praised classic fairy tale Wishapick, Tickety Boo and the Black Trunk written by author M. M. Allen; and a CD of Wishapick Tickety Boo and the Black Trunk soundtrack composed by the talented Deborah Wynne. Moonbeam Gold Medal Award and 5 Star Readers Favorite.

    Darkness -utter blackness. Was this why his mother had refused to let Jack unlock his father’s old trunk? It had been two years since his dad had died, and all Jack could think about was examining whatever treasures were stored inside the beloved trunk. But when he finally lifted the lid, he didn’t just fall in-he fell through it into a pit of rattlesnakes!

    Trying to recall his mother’s stories about the Breath of All Good Things – anything to help him out of his dangerous predicament – Jack wished he had paid attention rather than mock the tales as childish myths… and that he’d waited to enter the trunk with his sister, Lilly. They could at least face this together.

    “… a breathy and fantastical storytelling style, imaginations will flourish and the tale will be enjoyed by kids ages 8-12 who enjoy the genre of fantasy.”—The Children’s Book Review

    Wishapick: Tickety Boo and the Black Trunk is available on Amazon.

      So talented between the story and composing of the music. Thank you for the opportunity. I’d love to win it for my grandchildren. It would be a wonderful addition to their books and musical CD’s. I tried pinning to Pinterest but it says it can’t retrieve the picture. I tried a couple of times.

      My nieces used to perform in musical theater when they were both younger and it was a blast to see them up on stage acting out the scenes.

      Children’s theater is fun to go to with or without kids. My 5 kids attended many plays put on by youth at local schools and also various small theaters. The twins even participated in a musical and outgrew their shyness.
