A Bag of Lucky Teeth: An almost true to life novel (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798484401444)

This refreshing novel by playwright/librettist/copywriter Val Brandt is an unpredictable mix of humour, misinformation and suspense. It begins in the winter of 1949 as the Kohler family deals with younger daughter Posy's 'bad patch' brought on by their move to a fixer-upper hotel in Flatte Butte, Saskatchewan, a town Posy insists is full of stealers, toy breakers and bad boys.

Her luck begins to pick up as free access to the movie hall turns into a six-shows-a-week habit. When the hotel sells, the family heads for the bright lights of Edmonton, Alberta, and Posy gets her hands on a booklet promising international fame in Six Easy Steps. She proceeds to unwittingly upend every life she bustles into on her single-minded quest for Hollywood stardom.

A Bag of Lucky Teeth is facetious, disarming and sneak-up-on-you exciting, while giving an exuberant account of post-World War II prairie life. To dignify the book with a premise you might say 'Na?e self-confidence leads to blind luck'.
