Bookworm Buddies (Pee Wee Scouts #30)
by Judy DeltonAs the new school year begins, the Pee Wees are busy earning their library badges. Molly can't wait to get her library card. Taking out books is a big responsibility. In fact getting a library card, reading books, and writing about them seems too much like school work to be any fun. Everyone wants to win the prize for reading the most books but Roger is cheating and reading baby books. The rest of the gang think they don't have a chance of beating him. In fact, since there are thirteen scouts and twelve is a luckier number, they wish he would just quit! Even worse, library books may cause some of them to be the first Pee Wees to go to jail, or could responsibility save them?
