About this listen

 Peewee idolizes Jake, a big brother whose dream of auto mechanic glory are fueled by the hard road coming to link their Indiana town and futures with the twentieth century. And motoring down the road comes Irene Ridpath, a young librarian with plans to astonish them all and turn Peewee's life upside down.

This novel, with its quirky characters, folksy setting, classic cars, and hilariously larger-than-life moments, is vintage Richard Peck–an offbeat, deliciously wicked comedy that is also unexpectedly moving. Growing Up & Facts of Life Historical Fiction Humorous Fiction Literature & Fiction Vehicles & Transportation

Critic reviews

As always, Peck writes with humor and affection about times past, elders, and growing up strong. (Kirkus Reviews, starred review)
