Thank You Weasel Abbs! (Paperback)

'Thank you Weasel Abbs' is a second adventure story book based on 12 year old Scott's imaginary friend Weasel Abbs. Scott is both autistic and physically disabled and spends most of his time in his wheelchair. The story begins with Scott and his 10 year old brother Jake and 7 year old BJ, together with their cousins 10 year old Lucas and 8 year old Shona Ann staying at their grandparents' farm for the night following a party. The children are wakened with a tapping sound on the boys' bedroom window and Weasel Abbs announces he has a mission for them on the planet of H-Trae, an identical planet to Earth. Once there they find it hard to accept that the surroundings and the people are the same as back on Earth except everyone on H-Trae talk and act in a robotic fashion. After making friends with what appear to be clones of themselves it soon becomes clear why Weasel Abbs has brought them to H-Trae. However, they are soon confronted by the evil Baswell, who at first causes confusion by looking exactly like Weasel Abbs. Under false pretences Baswell takes them away to his planet of Drumstar and once there they meet up with Percival Pike, a scarecrow looking creature who comes to their rescue by taking them through the 'yellow door' into a wonderful magical world. Finally a duel between Weasel Abbs and Baswell takes place, and the children, as well as being awe inspired by the spectacular display, are more than anxious that their own Weasel Abbs will be the winner of the duel and finally rid them and H-Trae from Baswell's evil spell.
