Amanda Cleary Eastep: Jack and the Red Giant, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Jack Finch is seeing stars.

And it has nothing to do with Christmas. Snowball wars are being waged against the Tree Street Kids, and Jack has taken a hit to the eye from one of Buzz Rublatz's polar projectiles. Jack plans the perfect defense-the Abominable Snowman-ator. But building your greatest invention is tough when you're also practicing for the starring role in the school nativity play. One cold, starry night, a neighborhood catastrophe disturbs the peacefulness of the snow-covered streets and twinkling lights. What's that terrible orange glow? And does Buzz know more about it than he's telling? Jack is determined to find out. But, first, he needs a Christmas miracle. Will Jack find room in his heart to welcome an unexpected addition to the stage and his home? To Jack's surprise, he gives the neighborhood bully a greater gift than either of them could have imagined.
