A back-to-school assignment has Willa scrambling in this seventh book
of a chapter book series inspired by Marguerite Henry's Misty of
Chincoteague.
Willa just started school again and everyone in her class has come up
with clever ideas for their back-to-school projects. Even her best
friends Lena and Sarah are preparing something different: a Double-Dutch
demonstration. At first Willa thinks her father's fabulous raspberry
torte will be perfect, but at the last minute, the raspberries don't
cooperate! Just in the nick of time she realizes the best idea is in her
own barnyard: Starbuck! She'll show her class how to groom him,
something she's an expert at!
