The Gator Girls

From School Library Journal Grade 2-3?A beginning chapter book adorned with pencil sketches highlighted in green that will tickle children's funny bones. Alligator best friends Allie and Amy have big plans for their summer vacation together but are stymied when Allie's parents announce she is going to summer camp. They decide to cram all their outings into one day so they dash to the Swamp Street fair, to the swimming pool, and to the pizza parlor for their favorite dragonfly pizza. At every turn they run into their nemesis, the obnoxious Marvin. Finally, it's time to pack for camp, but things take a turn for the better when there's another opening at Camp Wogga-Bog and Amy can go too. The pair board the bus, only to discover that they will be spending the summer with Marvin!
