Description

Good and bad luck battle to control the world in this hilarious and enchanting illustrated middle grade novel about a lucky rabbit, an evil black cat, and one hapless boy caught between them, from award-wining screenwriter and debut author Adam Kline. Cecil Bean has always had good luck thanks to his devoted rabbit, Leek, but never noticed the villainous cat, Millikin, lurking around. That is until Millikin hatches an evil plan to vanish Leek into a magician’s hat, leaving Cecil with no good luck and stranding Leek in a world no rabbit has escaped from. Together, Leek and Cecil face enormous odds and insurmountable obstacles to find their way back to each other. Leek must overcome various daunting challenges, while Cecil embarks on an adventure to find the magician who turned his life upside down. This debut novel by Adam Kline, with full-color illustrations by Brian Taylor, is soon to be a major animated motion picture directed by Mark Osborne.
