Without giving too much away: His older brother, Chris has an accident and is the focus of his parents' attention. Poor Newt was overlooked before, but now even more so. Halloween is coming up and his friends encourage him to come up with a costume. What happened was more than a wardrobe change!
Great book to discuss with friends. Let me know what you think about this Maud Hart Lovelace Nominee by Dean Pitchford.
