Book excerpt: Koo-Koo Poo-Poo, a tale of a not-so mild mannered Superhero Pigeon, is an uplifting action-packed fictional story that middle grade readers and adults of all ages will enjoy immensely. It's going to make you laugh, and maybe even shed a few tears, but we don't have to tell anyone about that. Why? Well, one reason is because of the character telling this story. Meet Wesley King, a not-so-common pigeon who suffers from narcissism and has a major dilemma on his hands, or um... wings. Wesley lives in West Hill, a once eclectic thriving downtown community that is now more known for crime, drugs, and thugs. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to many West Hill residents however, also lives Jeremy Barnes, a rather creative, clever and determined 13 year old. He lives with his mom in a small apartment on the top floor of a rundown brick building. Recently, Jeremy's father, Christofer-- an active citizen with plans to revitalize the West Hill neighborhood to what it was when he was a kid-- was murdered right outside their apartment trying to save a woman from being mugged. As result Jeremy's mother, Virginia, works two jobs to keep a roof over their heads. Despite all of the challenges Jeremy and his mom face, he has big plans to follow in his father's footsteps and change things in his neighborhood. But after trying to help a kid at the bus stop getting beat up by a gangbanger, he realizes escaping the criminals' wrath and saving the neighborhood is not going to be easy, at least by himself. Enter Wesley to save the day; well maybe. You should know, Wesley hasn't always been a pigeon. He used to be a big time banker that enjoyed making the rich richer and keeping the poor in poverty. After suffering a fatal heart attack, he was transported to West Hill and transmogrified into a bird of the dove family; the creature he despised the most during his life as a human. Through what Wesley believes might possibly be divine intervention, he realizes the only way out of living for eternity in a pigeon suit relies upon if he can help Jeremy accomplish what at times seems like an impossible feat, uniting the citizens of West Hill to evict the gang that haunts their world. Although Jeremy's lovable best buddy Tommy, a much less creative, clever and determined 13 year old, tries his best to keep Jeremy from getting in trouble, it's not enough. The gang's leader, who they call Smit, is on to Jeremy. Smit even knows the whole story about Jeremy's dad unsolved murder case. Even worse, Smit is the outcast cousin of Melody, a kind and pretty new girl in the school who Jeremy is quite attracted to. But rest assured, Wesley King with his entourage and flock of felicity is always flying close by ready to swoop down and scatter #2 droppings upon any who challenge Jeremy and his friends.Jeremy's mom, however, is growing more worried that her son might suffer the same fate as his father. She's also concerned about his possibly delusional hallucinations that a pigeon is trying to help him accomplish this coup. She pleads with Jeremy to just stay away from the gang. But on a melancholy night alone at the apartment, Jeremy pulls out a box of old pictures and finds an idea his father had to fix things... and how this discovery turns out... well, It's a story you will want to read to the very last page.
