Otherwise Known as Sheila the Great

It seemed as if there were two Sheilas —both ten years old—SHEILA THE GREAT and Sheila Tubman. And a summer in the strange suburban world of Tarrytown, complete with such terrors as swimming lessons, thunderstorms, and a resident beagle might just undermine "THE GREAT" image once and for all.

But wait—and read! sheila tub- man had resources she didn't even know about. How she made friends with Mouse Ellis, junior yo-yo champion; held up the props in the day- camp production of Peter Pan; and even survived the dread moments of truth revealed b Slam Books at a slumber party make a very, very funny story—worthy of SHEILA THE GREAT.

Judy Blume has written another perceptively amusing book, sure to please everyone who chuckled over Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing as well as those who haven't yet had that pleasure. --front flap
