Description
<b>Follow a brother and sister in this coming-of-age tale filled with heart, history, and just the right amount of trouble!</b><br><br>When Joey and his sister Mary Alice leave Chicago to spend the summer with their Grandma Dowdel, they expect a quiet visit in a sleepy country town. Instead, they get nine summers of jaw-dropping surprises, laugh-out-loud mischief, and moments that will change them forever. Grandma may be older than dirt and tougher than a rusty tractor, but she’s got a heart of gold—and a habit of teaching life lessons in unexpected (and hilarious) ways. . .
