Who ever heard of a cat that didn't eat birds?
The house people had picked me out of my litter to be a mouser. Callie was getting too old for the job. So it was mine. But I didn't plan on getting dive-bombed by a mockingbird building her nest...or adopting the baby who fell out. No joke! I'm a cat, but I do not eat birds. Mice, yes. Birds, no. Flea — that's what I named her — couldn't even fly. She was so scared when she toppled onto my head that she said, "Eat me...it's quicker than starving to death."
She was pathetic. I had to help her. The first step was protecting Flea — and me — from the monster rats in the barn (that's saying a mouthful!) and Bullsnake under the woodpile. Next, Callie and I had to teach Flea to fly. After all, how could she stay up North with us when her bird family was flying to Florida. I'm not a Florida kind of cat. It's just too hot for us furry types. I know I'll miss my Flea. But she'll come back — after she's seen the world!]]> Thu, 13 Nov 2003 16:33:42 +0200 https://readfrom.net/bill-wallace/123080-skinny-dipping_at_monster_lake.html https://readfrom.net/bill-wallace/123080-skinny-dipping_at_monster_lake.html
Kent doesn't believe in monsters. But he knows he saw two gleaming yellow eyes beneath the surface of Cedar Lake when he and his buddies were camping at the lake. When he sneaks out alone a few nights later to investigate, the eyes return — and they seem to be following him.
Kent and his friends are determined to solve the mystery of the Cedar Lake monster. But what they discover one dark summer night is just as surprising as a monster — and just as dangerous.]]> Sat, 11 Nov 1995 21:18:41 +0200 https://readfrom.net/bill-wallace/165656-upchuck_and_the_rotten_willy.html https://readfrom.net/bill-wallace/165656-upchuck_and_the_rotten_willy.html

The day of the Naming is an important one for young roadrunners. That's when roadrunner parents judge the speed, courage, and hunting skill of their offspring and choose fitting names for them.

One proud fledgling dreams of being named Muscles, or Dash, or even Hunter. If only he hadn't pursued those three juicy grasshoppers for a final snack. If only he'd remembered his parents' lesson: "Always look before you leap." If only he'd paid more attention to the mouse family that had lost two children to a nearby snake. If only the rattler had given some warning before it struck....

Miraculously, the young roadrunner survives the attack, but not without damage. With their son's feet swollen to such an enormous size, his parents have no choice but to give him the humiliating name of Thunderfoot.

It's enough to make a roadrunner wallow in self-pity and give up. But the only thing bigger than Thunderfoot's feet is his heart, and with some not always gentle...]]> Thu, 13 Nov 2014 16:33:42 +0200 https://readfrom.net/bill-wallace/165655-watchdog_and_the_coyotes.html https://readfrom.net/bill-wallace/165655-watchdog_and_the_coyotes.html
Some dogs have a bark bigger than their bite. But Sweetie, The Great Dane, can't afford to bark — or bite.
After three little nips and three masters, the next stop is the pound. So when the burglar comes calling, he waves his tail. When coyotes come prowling, he tries to make peace — as they howl in scorn. They promise they'll return — to eat his food, his friends, Red the Irish Setter, Poky the Beagle, and Sweetie for dessert!
If Sweetie can't protect them they'll all perish! How can he outfox twelve hungry coyotes?]]> Tue, 13 Nov 2007 21:42:27 +0200 https://readfrom.net/bill-wallace/121080-running_wild.html https://readfrom.net/bill-wallace/121080-running_wild.html
