Uncle Tease: Friends and Friendship (Literacy Links Chapter Books)

by Ellen Javernick

A story in 10 chapters about a pair of twins' disgruntlement over the fact their uncle is going to get married, because "married people aren't much fun." They plot to destroy the romance, and then have second thoughts. Black and white illustrations. At one point Uncle Tease gives the kids flashlights and tells them how to flash coded messages to each other. The book includes a table of the letters and numbers of the International Morse Code. Uncle Tease is listed with several other books under the heading "Friends and Friendships," apparently a series published by Shortland Publications and Rigby.
