    Earplugs

    Look Up!

    An Excerpt from The Lobster Chronicles

    Meet …

    Earplugs

    I’ve pulled some strings, Head Badger Bob announced as he read from his overstuffed clipboard. He always saved big news for the end of Junior Badger night.

    Martin’s stomach did a little leap. He knew that whatever Head Badger Bob had in mind, the sky was the limit!

    The Junior Badgers stood in a semicircle, and they all held their breath.

    The Harbormaster has invited our troop to watch this weekend’s fireworks from his trawler! Head Badger Bob boomed.

    The troop whooped. Watching from a boat in the harbor meant that they would be right beneath the fiery display!

    Dazzling spinners! Whistling missiles! Spectacular sparklers!

    Zing! Zang! Zow!

    Martin turned to his best friend, Stuart, and gave him a playful punch on the shoulder.

    Ka-boom! Stuart replied, throwing his arms sky-high. You’ll be plugging your ears for sure!

    Martin didn’t mind the tease. Even though he had worn earplugs during last year’s fireworks to muffle the thunderous explosions, he had still ooohed and aaahed along with the rest of the crowd at each brilliant burst of color.
