Multi-award-winning author pens a playful rhyming story about a shrewd treat-loving rat.
Zachary is a little gourmand rat who cleverly chose his home under the floorboards of a bakery. At night when the bakery was closed, he'd select a single pastry to delight in. He knew that taking more would raise suspicion. After he'd make his way back under the floorboards with his tasty treat, his chums would beg for a nibble, but not one morsel would Zachary give up.
One night Zachary saw a different type of delicious delectable: potatoes, filling up a big sack. When Zachary takes more and more each night, he still doesn't share with his rat friends who nevertheless are kind enough to give him a warning about hoarding so many potatoes. It's not long before the epicurean Zachary learns the hard way that greed can be risky indeed.
On the floor above him was a commotion so loud.
"Where are my potatoes?" cried the baker to his crowd.
Vibrant, gem-hued and detailed illustrations are a feast for young readers to pore over and bring to life this playful rhyming story with a gentle moral by author Junia Wonders. Some of Wonders' award-winning picture books include I Love You Through Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall; Have You Ever Wondered What You Will Be?; and The Night the Monsters Came.
Praise for Zachary and the Great Potato Catastrophe:
"A clever rat named Zachary lives a quiet life under the floorboards of a bakery - until a new delivery causes unexpected trouble! A charming rhyming tale of friendship and sharing." -BookBub
"Written in rhyme and sprinkled liberally with humour, Zachary and the Great Potato Catastrophe is a charming and quirky tale that's great for reading aloud. Guilia Lombardo's original illustrations really bring the characters to life, both human and animal. I particularly like one of Zachary's twisty-whiskered pals! And there's a delightful ending that shows that life is indeed sweeter when you share your good fortune with your chums." -Nick Jones, Author, Full Media Ltd.

Received an Advanced Reader Copy from a friend. I am an avid true crime reader and upon completion I question if the author is credible. The timeline does not add up for his age and the times of his alleged involvement in organized crime. Some of the things in the book he is alleged to have said and done I remember almost word for word from movies I had previously watched. He literally stole a scene from the movie the accountant with Ben Affleck and said that he did it. I did a little research after completing the book and learned that this author was also claiming in 2010 that he was a long time member of the Bloods Gang. That coupled with the above leads me to believe that it is nothing more than fantasy. Do not waste your time or money

What a difficult story to tell. I appreciate the honesty and vulnerability. Definitely made me think.
I had hopes for this book but was not expecting what I would read within the pages. If your kink is deplorable grammar, incoherent sentences, and inconsistent messages, then this book is for you. At first, I thought the book I received was not the book I ordered. But as I dived in, it was very confusing. I would not recommend this book to anyone
There are not many reviews on the internet for this book. In researching the many stores selling the book, it was self-published which makes a lot of sense. The online description is written perfectly, so reading the actual book was very difficult. Pages two and three are written clearly as well as the table of contents. Pages 155 and 156 are also written logically.
It appears this book was written, then sent through a program like “Grammarly.” Once completed it seems it was published without being re-read or edited. The first clue was the title narrative that used “Has” instead of “As.” The table of contents is one page off from what it shows on pages four though seven. Many of the “q’s” are written as “[]”
Below are some examples of what was within the pages of this book written verbatim:
“Chains & Discipline/ Domination & entry/ Sadism & Masochism (BDSM) is a wide classification of bed room play.” Page 9
“When bringing up the topic of chains, you are actually asking a person to offer you their depend on, their flexibility, and also possibly their suggestion of security in exchange for sensual/sexual enjoyment, power-play, and also feasible re-evaluation of your very own connection.” Page 39
“Techni[]ue can take a selection of kinds and also be as easy or facility as you pick to (new paragraph) bargain for your details scenario” Page 52
“BDSM stands for chains as well as entry, technique and also supremacy as well as sadism and also masochism.” Page 125
“SHELF means Risk Aware Consensual Kink.” Page 130
“Approval is whatever.” Page 152
“your twist isn’t my twist, yet your twist is OKAY.” Page 153
“You can be a top, base, or button” Page 153
