Unveiling the book
One morning Robert and his sister Lucy are gobbling up their breakfast in a contest to see who will be first to empty their bowl. Lucy wins and Robert decides to get revenge by playing a silly prank on her which causes a huge morning catastrophe!
When Mum comes into the kitchen she is not amused at what greets her. Immediately she sends Robert to the naughty chair for a 15 minute time out. Then... Robert is not amused but understands that what he has done is wrong and drags himself to the waiting wooden naughty chair.
"I wish I could get rid of this naughty chair," he thought.
"It is really boring sitting here."
Suddenly the chair starts moving from side to side and lifts into the air. Robert and his dog Waggles hold on tightly as they zoom through the air. Where on earth is the monster chair heading? It seems to have a mind of its own and a pre-planned destination where it wants to dump its riders. Oh my!
The entire family learns a very valuable lesson that day. It is time for the naughty chair to have a time-out... a permanent time out!
The author points out to readers that there are consequences for your actions. Robert learns that his unacceptable behaviour can disrupt and hurt others and in return he must think about what he does and how he can correct his bad behaviour.
The illustrations are well done and full of expression and action. The ending of the book is open-ended leaving room for discussion and a feeling of suspense.... mmmmm.....what if?
