THE WOODLANDS, Texas, November 10, 2022 (Newswire.com) - Sandy Heitmeier Thompson has completed her new book, "A Rookie Comes to Town": a charming tale of what it's like moving to a new town and trying to find new friends. Young Anish finds himself in that exact position, but a surprising new friend helps him navigate his new environment.
"Shortly after Anish and his family arrive in town, he is surprised to meet a pigeon collecting coins. 'That's why they call me Cash, young man,' says the pigeon. The two quickly become friends, and Cash tells Anish that a squirrel is trying to steal his loot. Cash also shares the amazing story of his ancestor, Cher Ami, a hero who saved many soldiers in 1918. Anish admits that he is a little frightened because the next day is his first day at school and everything is new to him. Cash arranges for Anish to meet some of his human friends by inviting Anish to play on his soccer team. The next day, Anish is excited and happy. Everyone at school and on his soccer team is friendly and helpful. After school each day, Coach Cash drills the soccer team to prepare for an upcoming tournament, but a sneaky squirrel continually steals things from him. The players, however, form a great team because they are unselfish and appreciate others. All their practice and hard work pay off, and the championship game is full of excitement and surprises."
