Jethro and Joel is a story about a troll with one body but separate heads. Joel bored by living on the mountain and wants to be destructive. Jethro does not want to be but gives him one day. They go down to town and then to the castle where Joel throws a big rock through it. The knights come out to fight but Jethro does not want to fight and surrenders. They make a deal to rebuild the castle and then build castles for even the poorest of families for a sack of turnips as payment. I picked this story because when I was at the library it was the first book that I picked up that did not have an animal or a person on the cover but some other type of creature.
Dudley the rooster had a beautiful crow that the sun loved to hear. The only one that did not love his crow or him was Gunther a nasty goose. One day Gunther chased Dudley into the woods where he had to hide all night. The sun decided that he would not riser unless Dudley crowed. By the next morning the sun had not come out and they horse named Hector went to find him after finding out what had happened. He found Dudley and brought him back to the barn where he crowed and brought the sun up. Everyone was happy but Gunther who left the farm. I picked out this book because I liked the cover of the book. The farm is the main setting for this story.
