No current Talk conversations about this book. Loved it. (  ) BarbF410 | May 22, 2022 |  Hmph. I _thought_ she was imitating Grandma Dowdel a little too well. Now there's two of them running their little plots. Interesting but not enjoyable, for me - if you don't mind manipulators, you might like it better. (  ) jjmcgaffey | Jan 14, 2022 | Although the vagueness remains, I still was in stitches during Mary Alice's first attempt to "study" with Royce McNabb. Hilarious. (  ) OutOfTheBestBooks | Sep 24, 2021 | It's 1937, and Mary Alice is now 15 years old. She has been sent to live with her grandmother while her father searches for employment. Things are tough all over, but Grandma Dowdel hasn't changed from her eccentric ways, using atypical methods to keep them both clothed and fed. Wonderful, smile-inducing book, and worthy of the Newbery it won in 2001. ( ) fuzzi | Sep 16, 2021 | Thoroughly enjoyable. ( ) emrsalgado | Jul 23, 2021 | no reviews | add a review
