Book Description:
Mary Alice's childhood summers in Grandma Dowdel's sleepy Illinois town were packed with enough drama to fill the double bill of any picture show. But now she is fifteen, and faces a whole long year with Grandma, a woman well known for shaking up her neighbors-and everyone else! All Mary Alice can know for certain is this: when trying to predict how life with Grandma might turn out . . . better not. This wry, delightful sequel to the Newbery Honor Book A Long Way from Chicago has already taken its place among the classics of children's literature.

I read this book so I could recommend it for my daughter to read aloud to her 4th grade students.....it was a wonderful read for adults, too.

an awsome book taking place in the great depression, a grandma who may be off her rocker but keeps readers wanting more, in my top five books!
