IFs are positive, full of invention,
blind eyed optimists with the best of intentions.
How it WorksIF is a children’s narrative written in rhyming verse.
A book parents will enjoy performing as much as kids will enjoy hearing — exciting to independent readers 9-12, ready for richer language and sly humor.
IF
Once a month, the town of Middle brings its new ideas for a better future before Charlie Boovay, the greatest "no" man alive. And once a month, he crushes their hopes with a single word, “No”. All on behalf of his boss, the money obsessed Mr. G. who fears anyone advancing but himself.
Then ten-year-old Bean O'Shay arrives with a box he built himself, and demonstrates that with the single magical word, IF, you can undo a lifetime of NO.
IF is an illustrated narrative poem, written in verse for solo readers and family read-alouds — designed to reward the adults doing the reading as well as delight the listeners.
Inside the world of IF:
If Pigs had wings…
If frogs could sing…
