Pop Squad was amazing. I must have read it four times and was still blown away. :D

Glad you liked it. I wasn’t sure how it would fly with readers. My wife hated it; I used mannerisms from our son to develop the children in the story. The whole thing ended up striking a little too close to home for her taste.
