A synopsis of the book follows:
Summer vacation took a curious turn for Dexter when he discovered that he had a very unusual relationship with Martin Luther King, Jr. Dexter didn’t feel as if he could tell his mother, because she was too preoccupied trying to secure a promotion. His aunt Nina might have been sympathetic, but she had a drinking problem. His cousin Alexis was definitely not an option either. She was too busy teasing him about the fact that he continued to carry around a big stuffed dog named Fang. But Dexter had received Fang the day his dad died and had no intentions of ever getting rid of his furry best friend.
Although he was very smart, there were some things that Dexter simply didn’t understand. For example, why was Mr. Hummel so intent on having him visit the top of the Gateway Arch? How could someone as hateful and selfish as Alexis possibly care for a new baby? And why was Ralph being so friendly to him? As summer wears on, Dexter eventually learns the answers to these questions and begins to understand how to apply Martin Luther King Jr.’s teachings to his own life.
Unwind Your Mind: Fang is King is one of two books in a series. The second book, Becoming A Butterfly also has a Unwind Your Mind app in the iTunes app store. The activities are the same, but the book provides a completely different story.
