Opis

In the little town of Bustlebout in 1954, strange events bug Jenny Maybelle Gillory. She just wants to be an ordinary fifth grader with the best dog ever and tons of friends. She figures if her dog Champ can win the Bustlebout May Day Festival Dog Show, she will have all the friends she wants. But hard times come, and training Champ isn't so easy. Things get whacky. Jenny's hair sticks out like airplane wings, and she tumbles through the air in the most embarrassing way. So does Champ. Jenny collides with one catastrophe after another as she struggles to solve her flying problem. She fears that she will never be normal again and never have another friend. Is spooky old Miz Stogner with her weird broom causing Jenny Maybelle to whirl and bumble through the sky? It puzzles Jenny. Finally, the day of the dog show arrives, and Jenny makes a surprising decision about friendship and flying. (Middle-grade novel for ages 9-11+)
