Details
by Barbara O'Connor (Author)
From Barbara O'Connor, the #1 New York Times-bestselling author of Wish, comes a book about new friends, a frog, and an unforgettable summer. Perfect for fans of Katherine Applegate and Kate DiCamillo.
An amazing secret has tumbled off a freight train into Carter, Georgia, and Owen Jester is the only person who knows about it. If he can simply manage to evade his grandfather's snappish housekeeper, organize his two best friends, and keep his nosy neighbor, Viola, at bay, he just might be in for the summer of a lifetime. With her trademark wit and easy charm, Barbara O'Connor spins a fantastic fable of friends, enemies, and superbly slimy bullfrogs.
