A fun early-teen comedy/dram presented in scripted format. Written to be a limited-run streaming service television program, it follows Kash Rogers and his small group of friends as they navigate the everyday challenges of kids their age- popularity, peer pressure, budding romance and, while we're at it, what's the deal with squirrels? Set in Columbus, Ohio during the waning weeks of summer 1983, Kash, Dawn, Pickens, Darrin and newcomer Smokey come to grips with the inevitable changes they face, leaning on each other the whole way.

The Giggles Are Gonna Get You! Bolt the doors and get out of earshot when kids discover A Bad Case of the Giggles. One of the funniest collections of children's poetry, this book includes creations from some of the most entertaining children's poets, including Kenn Nesbitt, Bruce Lansky, Eric Ode, Bill Dodds, Joyce Armor, Linda Knaus, Eileen Spinelli, Robert Scotellaro, Rebecca Kai Dotlich and more.

This collection of almost completely true short stories spans six decades. Humor is the main ingredient, spiced up with a spirit of adventure, action and high-risk behavior often bordering on disaster. First, the stories delve into author Ross C. Dumoulin’s childhood experiences, firmly entrenched in 1960s mentality and culture. You will read about way too much bubblegum and Ross’s kid-jobs as Paladin and Zorro. And you will learn why he put greasy sausages in his pocket. There is also a confrontation with an evil killer plant and its nasty consequences. Later, the stories move on to family life and moments of panic, such as the day 85,000 L of water tried to make its way into Ross’s basement. We also have a tale of transporting a full can of paint inside his new car. What could possibly go wrong with that? As Ross slides into his 60s, he experiences a series of medical misadventures. You will learn about little gems of highly dubious advice from his doctor and find out why he was labelled as “borderline normal.” The last three stories are of the heart-warming variety, as they relate the author’s volunteer work with children and his efforts in making their lives better. These stories celebrate children, their desire to play and laugh, their joie-de-vivre and resilience. So, if you need a laughter-break from what the world has been going through over the last few years, if you want to escape into a funhouse of thrills and spills, then read on!
