When Jake accidentally unlatches the gates of all the animal pens, it's only a matter of minutes before chaos and hilarity take over Reliant Stadium.

Just as all seems grim, Jake devises a crafty and creative plan to herd up the livestock and save the show from disaster.

About the author

I'm the author of literally (get it) dozens of books for children.

Born in Killeen, Texas on a cold January day in 1954. My family moved around a lot, allowing me to, over the years, live on a farm, in an historic home and always near rivers or bayous. My playthings were hula-hoops, old typewriters and a wooden leg named Charlie. (Yep, you read that right.) If you want a true glimpse of my childhood dreams, read my novel, Man in the Moon. The character Janine allows you inside my young mixed-up mind.

I’ve lived most of my life in Houston and still live there today. You’ll find me here reading, writing and smiling.

The pictures were better than the actual story.
