Description
<p>"I am strong, and my flash is bright, And I will defend you and make things all right." These are the magic words to call upon Manner-Man - a superhero who can help control bullies and teach children ways to be considerate of others. Manner-Man arrives, shouting "To the Rescue", helping children learn about sharing and warning about not 'hitting with words.' He teaches that if someone starts pushing, just shout out "not nice!" Meet the children who form the Manner-Man team and find out how to join! Manner-Man incorporates messages and characters found within some of Cannon's earlier books - helping children learn how to cope with bullies and look within themselves for their inner superhero! This is the fifth rhyming children's book by this award-winning author whose other bestselling books include Gimme-Jimmy, The Magic Word, Peter and the Whimper-Whineys and Santa's Birthday Gift. Former teacher Sherrill S. Cannon has won a dozen awards for her four previous rhyming books and is also the author of six published and internationally performed plays for elementary school children. She has been called "a modern day Dr.Seuss" - GMTA Review. Publisher's website: http://sbpra.com/SherrillSCannon</p>
Story Behind The Book
The main character, Father Franklin Shmit, is a world-renowed exorcist with Tourette's Syndrome. Fortunately, his foul mouth is just what is needed to stand up to demons. His friend is a brilliant computer geek nicknamed Fire Fox. Between the two of them they manage to weather outrageous circumstances including conspiracy theories, aliens, zombies, Satan, and a host of paranormal events. Yes, it is a trilogy. The idea for the main character came from a former business associate who said to me one day, "Wouldn't it be funny if a priest had Tourette's Syndrome?" Yes, it would...and is.
