Teaser Tuesdays and It's Tuesday...Where Are You?


TEASER TUESDAYS asks you to:
Grab your current read.
Let the book fall open to a random page.
Share with us two (2) “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!
Please avoid spoilers!



Fone Bone: "an' you know what else? I think that dragon is followin' me around!"
Thorn: "Fone Bone! We've been over this a hundred times!"

Fone Bone: "But I'm tellin' ya, I saw one! He had a goatee 'n' a cigarette, 'n' big ol' hairy ears like this!"
Thorn: "Dragons are make-believe! You were seeing things!"

p.56 from Bone: Out From Boneville by Jeff Smith


__________________________________________________


My two cousins and I have been kicked out of Boneville. Now I've been separated from them and have found myself in a strange and mysterious forest. There are these two crazy monsters that want to make me into a quiche, but luckily for me a big Dragon who has a goatee and smokes cigars save me from being dinner. I've survived winter and have just found a new friend named Thorn, who will hopefully help me find my way out and reunite me with my cousins.

  16. Sounds like a cute book. I've learned to never rule something out until I've seen it myself or evidence to prove it doesn't exist. So if he's being chased by a dragon I can believe it!
