Nobody loves Truman Elementary more than Ginny Louise. She didn't think
school could get any better until -- School Field Day!
Ball throws, long jumps, tug-of-war, and, to top it all off, a sack
race! Ginny Louise is game for it all.
But the Truman Elementary Troublemakers, Cap'n Catastrophe, Destructo
Dude, and Make-My-Day May, aren't playing fair. When they go too far,
can Ginny Louise use her irrepressible good humor to give everyone a
reason to cheer?
Jaws will drop and eyes will pop before this School Field Day crosses
the finish line.
Praise for Ginny Louise and the School Showdown:
Never underestimate the power of good, especially when it's wrapped up
in as sweet a package as Ginny Louise.--*Kirkus

This is a fun new take on the anti-bullying story, as Ginny Louise gets
her way through optimism, kindness, and sheer stubbornness. Lively
illustrations, the subtle Western theme, and a positive message will
have kids kicking up their heels in their own hoedowns: yippee-ki-yay!
