Millie is back!
Mildred Susanne Parker likes her life just so. She has her cozy little
house on its quiet little street in a small town in the Midwest. She is not
a fan of change, but she has a practical approach to life that allows her
to weather all manner of events with aplomb and grace.
Still it seems that she has barely recovered from her trips to the future
("Millie's Adventures in Time") and the acquisition of a talking duck and
the family he produced when a dog is delivered to her by one of her
precious talking ducks. Millie is pretty certain she never said she wanted
a dog. But it does not take her long to become attached to Franklin. They
had settled into a comfortable, if mildly contentious, life together when
one day, Franklin is rudely snatched away from her.
Millie is certain, based on the attire and behavior of the person doing the
snatching, that Franklin has been taken to the future that Mille has
visited a number of times. But it is not by anyone she has previously met.
Millie is determined to get Franklin back. To do this, she enlists the aid
of her stalwart friend and confidante, Mavis. Together, they enlist the aid
of a new friend.
They plot. They scheme. The will not be thwarted.
They have many problems to solve, hurdles to surpass, and enemies to
outwit. But as anyone who knows Mildred Susanne Parker knows, once she sets
her mind to something, it is as good as done.
"Millie's Further Adventures in Time" is filled with wry humor and wit on a
par with "Millie's Adventures in Time." It is a romping good read that will
have you wondering what could possibly happen next.
Praise for "Millie's Further Adventures in Time: "
"It's even better than the first one."
