A funny, touching story, told in friendly free verse with lively pen and ink drawings, about an accident-prone boy whose heart is in the right place. Do-wrong Ron can't do anything right. His only ally is Charlie, the guinea pig, until he meets Isabelle, who sees nothing wrong with Ron. Together, they set out to help Isabelle's lonely grandmother.
HONOUR BOOK: CBCA Book of the Year, Younger Readers, 2004
He's do-wrong Ron
who does the wrong things at the wrong time
or the right things at the wrong time
or the wrong things at the right time.
until he finds Charlie
the guinea pig who looks like an oversized rat
and they meet Isabelle
who is waiting for something
anything
to happen.
And when Ron plans a musical welcome for Isabelle's nana, anything just might happen. Written in vivid prose-poem snapshots, this is an engaging, illustrated story book for young readers.
