Description
Jerry Pye and his family are quite interesting characters. His father, Mr. Pye is known as "The Bird Man," because of his expertise on birds. Jerry's sister aspires to also be a "Bird Man," er, woman. Jerry's love of dogs draws him to Mrs. Speedy, who is selling fox-terriers. As long as he can find a way to make a dollar by six o'clock the next evening, a puppy will be his. Jerry, Rachel, and their Uncle Bennie all pitch in to make Jerry's dream possible, and they end up being able to get the dog, whom they name Ginger. The plot soon thickens when a mysterious man, dubbed "The Unsavory Character in the Yellow Hat," starts to lurk around. On Thanksgiving Day, Ginger tragically disappears. Meanwhile, the Pye children try not to give up hope as they search for their beloved dog.
