![]() ![]() ![]() A scarecrow is struck by lightning, and comes to life he recruits a young lad named Jack as his personal servant, and having nothing better to do the two embark on a grand adventure, complete with an army episode, entrangement on a solitary isle, and even a love affair. "This is a delightful little story, for children and adults alike. Will the Scarecrow discover the secret to his past before the crooked Buffalonis close in on him? As the valiant Scarecrow plunges them into terrifying dangers–battles, brigands, broken hearts, and treasure islands–he never realizes he’s being followed by the one family who desperately wishes he’d never sprung to life. Leaving behind his bird-scaring duties, the Scarecrow sets out for Spring Valley, with Jack at his side. He meets a boy, Jack, who becomes his faithful servant. So begins the story of the Scarecrow, a courteous but pea-brained fellow with grand ideas. But when a bolt of lightning strikes him, fizzing its way through his turnip head and down his broomstick, the Scarecrow blinks with surprise–and comes to life. A tattered scarecrow stands in the middle of a muddy field, taking no notice of the violent thunderstorm around him. ![]()
