Freddy and Simon the Dictator

Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
In Freddy and Simon the Dictator, warning had been printed in the Bean Home News and the Centerboro Guardian, but nobody paid much attention to them. An animal revolt? “Preposterous!” said the Beans and all the other humans. But it’s true—and Simon the rat is determined to turn the farm into a dictatorship. Mr. Camphor has been persuaded (much against his better judgment) to run for governor of New York State, Herb Garble shows up, Jinx defects to the enemy (or does he?), and Freddy—that inimitable pig!—goes to work as the political boss of Otesaraga County. Freddy and Simon the Dictator is classic Brooks, in which the master of barnyard hilarity has a lot of fun satirizing politics and—especially—politicians.

Book Description
Nine-year-old Freddy is thrilled to find that the new neighbors have a son his age; after years as an only child, he finally has a brother and companion in Jeremy. The two become inseparable, growing more and more involved in each other’s lives. At the invitation of his new friend, Jeremy begins to enjoy fun and exciting church activities, and the two realize that God is bringing them closer together. Jeremy experiences a new kind of love and acceptance in Freddy’s church community, and the resulting changes in his life have a surprising effect on the lives of those around him.
