Brilliant Story: Five Stars
The book is brilliant reading for middle schoolers, and older folks too. It’s well written with many good wholesome points without them being obvious. You can’t help getting totally lost in the story. A great Christmas present for young readers. Being a mom and grandma that has read most of the books my kids, and grandkids were reading just to know what they were reading. This book stands out for so many reasons, great story line, fun, adventures full of surprises, well written, and totally keeps you wanting more. Can’t wait for the next one in this trilogy.

THE BIRD CAPER
Just when everything seems fine, life swoops in to turn your world upside-down.
Nine-year-old Brandon will never understand why adults always need to change things. Like his parents, when they plunged a giant FOR SALE sign into his front yard like a dagger. Faced with losing the only home he’s ever known, Brandon panics at the thought of moving out of his neighborhood and away from his friends. And what will happen to Ralph, his pet crow and confidant?
But is he bold enough to sabotage the sale? That’s what those same adults suspect when the police are called to the home after a little girl is terrorized… by a bird. When Ralph next steals a computer chip belonging to Brandon’s BFF Josh, Brandon feels like his most important friendship—along with his whole life—is falling apart. And that’s before he discovers that his school’s worst nightmare, the dreaded B.B. Boys, live on his new block. When the gang accuses Ralph of flying off with their shiny silver whistle, tensions reach a boiling point.
But of all the things that might help save the day, Brandon never considered… ladybugs?
In The Bird Caper, Book 1 in the Crow’s Tales series, change might not be so scary after all. It could even lead to new lifelong friendships. Join Brandon in this intriguing, unpredictable story full of twists and turns that will leave you cawing out for more!

ABOUT THE AUTHORS
THOR SIGFUSSON
Thorir enjoys penning novels and short stories along with sketching and cartooning. You can also find him in his workshop carving wooden sculptures. And when possible, you will see him riding about in his beloved jeep. A funny thing about him is he’s all about outer space. He’s always checking the internet to see what new and amazing things they’ve discovered. For kicks in Iceland, where he grew up as a boy, they’d hold on to the back bumper of a bus and slide on the icy streets… don’t think that would be possible today!
VICTORIA E. PANNELL
Victoria not only enjoys writing stories, but she’s also a self-taught ventriloquist, so watch out, she might put words in your mouth. She enjoys keeping her outdoor bird feeders active, crafting soap, and kayaking . A fun day includes a top-down spin around in her classic roadster. A funny thing about her is she has a poor sense of smell… she’s never smelled a skunk. Oh, and she really has a thing about snakes—they freak her out! As a young girl, Victoria loved the Atlantic City beaches, boardwalk, and Steel Pier, while growing up in Southern New Jersey.
Victoria Pannell and Thorir Sigfusson are new to the world of writing, debuting with their first fiction novel for middle-graders: The Big Dream.
