Needless to say, things are rectified between the two of them when all is said and done.Īny information would be much appreciated! I remember a picture of the rajah raging over all of the things that kept happening. The second story I regrettably only have a vague memory of, but the nightingale was(I think) playing various pranks on the rajah(I don't remember the reason why, but he might have given her trouble earlier), such as tricking a frog into his food, with predictable end results. The barber begs for mercy, and finally helps the nightingale get the thorn out of her foot. I don't remember all of what happened next, but she basically asks several other people to help but they won't, and she somehow finally convinces everyone to help her, resulting in such things as the mouse saying, 'I will nibble a hole in the rajah's belly', and the rajah agreeing to get back at the barber et al. The nightingale then asks a mouse to nibble a hole in the rajah's belly, but he won't, then she asks a tiger to catch the mouse, but he won't. The barber won't help her, for some reason(I think that he may have said that he was too busy, but I'm not sure), and the nightingale, angered by his selfishness, asks the rajah to help her get the better of him, but he won't(I remember the rajah being rather large and fat he had a black mustache and wore a pinkish-purple suit and a turban of the same color). In the first story, the nightingale gets a thorn stuck in her foot, and asks a barber for help. I remember the pictures being very colorful, with somewhat thick black outlines they resembled stained glass. It was about a small, brown nightingale who lived in India(It wasn't The Emperor's Nightingale). I remember reading this book when I was a kid. I also believe at one point the boys (before the brother died) had a secret hide out in the woods, and also at the end the dog leads the boy to the dead brother's toy in the mentally disabled boy's backyard. At one point he was taken into custody, and went on the news and eventually made it to Georgia. He later found a stray dog and somehow figured out his brother's soul was in this dog, and the boy tried hitchhiking his way to Georgia to see the rockets. A boy that I think ended up having a mental disability wanted the boy's toy rocket, and he went to get it and the boy fell in the ditch that was going to be used for the shelter and was speared on a cast-iron foundation bar.

It all took place during the Vietnam War and his father was digging a bomb shelter outside, and his father became obsessed with the project, but something terrible happened. He had model rockets of all sorts, and always watched rocket tv shows and such. I read a book a while back about a boy who was obsessed with the idea of going to Georgia to see rockets fly.

Boy's brother dies then he finds a stray dog that is his brother
