A 2016 National Book Award Finalist Two-time Newbery Medalist Kate DiCamillo returns to her roots with a moving, masterful story of an unforgettable summer friendship. Raymie Clarke has come to realize that everything, absolutely everything, depends on her. And she has a plan. If Raymie can win the Little Miss Central Florida Tire competition, then her father, who left town two days ago with a dental hygienist, will see Raymie's picture in the paper and (maybe) come home. To win, not only does Raymie have to do good deeds and learn how to twirl a baton; she also has to contend with the wispy, frequently fainting Louisiana Elefante, who has a show-business background, and the fiery, stubborn Beverly Tapinski, who's determined to sabotage the contest. But as the competition approaches, loneliness, loss, and unanswerable questions draw the three girls into an unlikely friendship -- and challenge each of them to come to the rescue in unexpected ways.Binding Type: HardcoverAuthor: Kate DiCamilloPublisher: Candlewick Press (MA)Published: 04/12/2016ISBN: 9780763681173Pages: 272Weight: 0.95lbsSize: 7.90h x 5.80w x 1.10dAward: National Book Awards - FinalistReview Citations: Kirkus Reviews 01/15/2016Publishers Weekly 01/18/2016Booklist 02/15/2016 pg. 76School Library Journal 03/01/2016 pg. 127Horn Book Magazine 03/01/2016 pg. 88Voice of Youth Advocates 04/01/2016 - Recommended - ReadableBulletin of Ctr for Child Bks 04/01/2016Shelf Awareness 04/12/2016School Library Journal 12/01/2016 pg. 32Shelf Awareness 12/13/2016Accelerated Reader Quiz #/Name: 180940 / Raymie NightingaleReading Level: 4.2 / Interest Level: Middle Grade / Point Value: 5
