Kermit Greene's World

Kevin Greene, whose nickname is Kermit (courtesy of his teasing brothers), has red hair and is small, almost lost in his busy family. When two tiny beings from outer space convince him to return to their kingdom to help save it from the Devastators, who wish to destroy their planet, he embarks on an extraordinary journey. When he arrives on Celabar, Kevin realizes it's been his destiny all along. He loves being a little bit bigger than the others and a hero to boot! But he must come up with a plan to get rid of a giant bird the Devastators are using to control their people and to gain control of the gold lying beneath Celabar.
A plan with numbers. (Special note to my readers: Of course, there is a Dachshund in the book.)Another children's book by J. S. Keim, filled with fantasy, fun, and danger.
