Books with author Thomas Yorke

Abel Baker is a Surfman with the United States Life Saving Service. His best friend, Charlie the Dog, accompanies him on his nightly beach patrols searching for ships in danger and sailors in need of rescue. It's Abel Baker's job to alert his fellow Surfmen at the Toms River, New Jersey USLSS Station #13 anytime their assistance is required. Charlie is a good companion for these long beach patrols because, you see, Charlie is a very special dog. He can talk. However, the only person who can understand him is his best friend, Abel Baker.

Mr. Monkey could not find his best friend, Mr. Elephant, so he decided to go searching for him. Along the way, he had many funny encounters with the animals in the Zoo, including a Penguin, a Beaver, a Tiger, an Owl, a Giraffe, and a Zebra, but couldn't find his friend. He went home and found Mr. Elephant taking a bubble bath! Wait until you see what happens next.
