2 Novels by Ted Staunton
Requirements: epub Reader, 854kb
Overview: Ted Staunton wrote his first story as an assignment at university. He almost forgot to hand it in on time, but he’s glad he did: it became the picture book Puddleman, and suddenly, almost by accident, he was an author. He always loved to read though, maybe because his parents took him to the library so often. Now he’s the award winning writer of over forty books, from YA and mid-grade novels (including titles in the popular SEVEN series) to Hi-Los, non-fiction, early chapter books, and of course picture books. He’s getting better at handing things in on time, too.
Genre: Young Adult > Fiction
Power Chord: At a Battle of the Bands event, Ace and his best friend Denny notice that girls like musicians, no matter how dorky the dudes might be. Having, so far, been severely challenged when it comes to meeting girls, they decide to start a band.
Ace discovers that he loves playing guitar and electric bass. While Denny tweets their every move and their clean-freak drummer, Pig, polishes everything in sight, Ace tries to write a song that will win at the next local teen songwriting contest. It’s more difficult than he thought it would be.
When Denny brings a great tune to rehearsal, Ace is devastated that Denny, who rarely practices, is a better songwriter than he is. The contest is only days away when Ace discovers that Denny stole the song, and Ace has to decide if winning is worth the lie.
Ace’s Basement: Following the demise of his first band, Ace has started a duo called Two with Lisa, a girl he has a huge crush on. As Ace and Lisa get serious about their music, Denny, Ace’s hapless friend, tries to help out by filming their every move so that he can create the ultimate music video.
As a joke, Denny puts together a Two video capturing all of the embarrassing moments–moments that Lisa in particular doesn’t want shared. Somehow, the video gets posted on YouTube.
Lisa and Ace find themselves starring in the latest comedic viral video. Lisa is humiliated and refuses to talk to Ace–until their fame turns out to have positive results.
