The Fantastic Secret of Owen Jester

Synopsis

Owen Jester wished his family hadn't moved to his grandfather's house after his dad lost his job at the hardware store. But things take an unexpected turn when something falls off a freight train and Owen finds 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.
