Description
When Junior Blossom wakes up in the hospital, his last memory is of crouching on the barn roof with cloth wings tied to his arms, and of Maggie and Vern in the yard below, urging him to fly. That had been before Jumior spotted a police car approaching the farm in a cloud of dust.
Meanwhile Pap, the children's grandfather, sits in disgrace in the city jail. He was arrested for disturbing the peace after his old pickup truck accidentally dumped 2,147 beer and soda cans (worth $107.35) on Spring Street.
With their mother away on the rodeo circuit, it's up to Maggie and Vern to find a way to rescue Pap and Junior. In this delightful comedy of errors Betsy Byars reveals with warmth and humor how bad times as well as good times can keep a family together
