BOOK LAUNCH PARTY!
COOPER & PACKRAT: MYSTERY AT PINE LAKE
BY OUR VERY OWN TAMRA WIGHT!
When Cooper and his friend Packrat set out to discover who is trying to destroy a loon nest, they end up in the middle of a mystery. Why would anyone want to hurt the loons? Set at a summer campground in Maine, this book is a wonderful adventure for all ages!
Check out all the 5 star reviews on Amazon!
Quote from Jo Knowles, author of See You At Harry's: "Mystery and adventure make this a suspenseful, can't-put-it-down book, but it's Cooper and Packrat's blind determination to save the loons against all odds that will steal your heart."
