Cooper’s book report

Maxie by Betty Basler Barboza

This short, but sweet little book (recommended by Susan) is about a budgie named Maxie and his life with the Basler family. Maxie was a charming and talkative little fellow, who had a series of amusing adventures. Cooper’s favorite parts of the book where when Maxie saved baby Brad’s life (from poisoning!) and when Maxie dropped his toys to the floor (a game Cooper likes to play). The family loved Maxie so much they had him stuffed after he died (that’s stuffed Maxie on the cover – yikes).

A contest for Cooper

Lay’s is currently running a contest to come up with a new potato chip flavor. First prize is 1 million dollars, so Cooper couldn’t wait to enter.

First she did a little research…

Then she entered her flavor combination on the Lays facebook app.

Now she just needs to wait for the results and that million dollar check!
