From the publisher

What has gotten into Brewster the rooster? The Macintosh family can’t understand why their barnyard pet is crowing at the darnedest things. “I’m worried about Brewster,” Magnolia said, mixing carrot cake batter with raisins. “Something has changed. It seems so strange but he’s crowing at the oddest occasions.” Whether it’s the children playing catch in the yard, Zeb painting the barn red, or Grandma Pearl flipping hotcakes, Brewster can’t stop from letting out an earsplitting cock-a-doodle-doo that sends the Macintosh family head over heels. When the barnyard brouhaha gets too much, even Doc Sawyer is consulted. But can he figure out how to help Brewster? Readers young and old will be charmed by the perfect solution to Brewster’s problem.Devin Scillian is an Emmy-award-winning broadcast journalist with the NBC affiliate station in Detroit.
