A Brave Day for Harold Brown

All Mr. Brown wants is a nice cup of tea and a peaceful evening with his cat on his knee. He’s too old for love and adventure. Or so he thinks.

This morning when Harold Brown woke up, it seemed like a normal day. Why would a 50-year old man feel anything about a circus coming to the quiet town of Limberlost? But BonBon Circus has brought a Bengal tiger, and Harold’s never seen a tiger before. When he decides to disrupt his routine to visit the circus, it sets in motion a few other changes, all leading up to one thrilling day. Will Mr. Brown’s life ever be the same again?

Reader review on Amazon.com: "It is very satisfying to me when the author allows the reader to really know the character and even better when you are actually fond of the character and want to continue to check in on him or her from time to time. I have read both of Mishana Khot's short stories about Harold Brown and loved them immensely." 

Another reader review on Amazon.com: "Choose a rainy day to read this one as it is going to make it a sunny one! A happy read, with a story that keeps you intrigued. The book is beautifully written, it has everything you want endearing characters, right amount of emotions and is seasoned well with a dash of thrill, when you are done it will leave behind a good feeling: just like the one you have after having a warm slice of apple pie on that rainy day!"

Yet another review on Amazon.com: Although I am not in the age group for which Ms. Khot is writing I enjoyed the book immensely. The description was right on target, not too much or too little and the plot was such that one was transported right into Harold's life. I was impressed. I'll be reading this one to my grandchildren. Thank You Mishana."
