Book Description
for Almost Starring Skinnybones by Barbara Park
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
Alex "Skinnybones" Frankovitch is an irrepressible optimist and a great first-person narrator for a light-hearted story about a 12-year-old who gains the dubious honor making a TV cat food commercial and maybe even a chance for fleeting fame at school, as well. (Ages 9-11)
