Tawny PaPawny and the Messy Room

Book excerpt: Tawny was in trouble again. Today was chore day and her room was a mess. Tawny enjoyed having her own room, but she hated keeping it clean. She didn't have to worry about sharing it with anyone except Duke, her pet turtle. If Momma saw this room she might not be able to go outside today. Everything was going okay until she discovered her long lost video game under her bed and decided to take a break from cleaning. When Momma showed up and scolded her for not finishing the job, she found herself spending the afternoon uncovering lost and forgotten treasures in her room and doing some cleaning too. She also learned from her Momma the importance of keeping a clean room and that everybody had to clean their rooms growing up even her brother Sam. Then to top it off Momma told her a story about Grandma Beatrice and the infamous "white glove test" and Tawny made the decision that it was better to have a clean room than a messy room any old day and finding her video game helped too.
