In a land far away live two kinds of things, Voodles and Thwarts. Voodles are noodley and love to play and Thwarts are square and serious. The Voodles must stay on their side of the land because Thwarts do not like fun. In a field of flowers behind the Thwarts, the wind is playing with a purple spotted butterfly. The Voodles want to play too. Find out how the Voodles outwit the Thwarts to play with the wind and it's friend the purple spotted butterfly. Voodles and Thwarts is a thirty-four page full color children's picture book. There are twenty-seven reading pages. For a read to me experience the creative drawings and story is suitable for children ages three to seven. The read for myself ages range from children in second to fourth grade. The hand drawn cartoon charaters of Jennie Hamel's signature style are fun and engaging for both children and adults. Children will want ot revisit the land of Voodles and Thwarts again and again!
