Freckle Juice
One day while Andrew was sitting in class, he noticed that the boy in front of him had so many freckles that his mother probably never noticed when he forgot to wash the back of his neck. Since having to wash up before school was his main reason for running late every day, he figured it would be wonderful if he could have freckles too. As one of Andrew's classmates discovers his desire for freckles, she decides to sell him her family's secret freckle juice recipe. Just how much will this odd concoction change the appearance of young Andrew? The story is printed in large font and is accompanied by several illustrations throughout. 57 pgs, pb. ~ Brianna
More than anything in the world, Andrew Marcus wants freckles. His classmate Nicky has freckles—they cover his face, his ears, and the whole back of his neck. But when Andrew asks Nicky where he got them, Nicky just says he was born with them. Some help he is!
That's when Sharon offers Andrew her secret freckle juice recipe—for fifty cents, she promises, Andrew can look just like Nicky. His freckleless days are over! He rushes home to whip up the concoction. Grape juice, vinegar, mustard…
But what starts out as a simple freckle juice recipe quickly turns into something disastrous. Andrew is still determined to get his freckles, and to show that pesky Sharon that she doesn't know everything—and he has the perfect solution! Or does he?
