The Procrastinator

Award winning children’s author, Julia Cook, has crafted another tale of her character Noodle facing the realities of childhood. In PROCRASTINATOR, Noodle learns the importance of doings things right away when his mother (and teacher) asks him to do them, rather than putting them off till later. As Noodle’s week progresses his cat gets hungrier, the rubbish piles up and his poetry homework is no closer to getting done. Noodle keeps choosing to do the things he wants to do, rather than the things he needs to do. Beautifully illustrated by artist, Anita Dufalla, PROCRASTINATOR is a humorous and engaging look at the results of a child only doing what is fun to do, rather than what needs to be done. The story ends with Noodle completing his poetry homework on time with each poem expressing his commitment not to be a procrastinator again.
