By the time she's two years old, Violet Van Winkle can fix nearly
any appliance in the house. And by eight she's building elaborate
flying machines from scratch - mind-boggling contraptions such as
the Tubbubbler, the Bioycopter, and the Wing-a-ma-jig. The kids at
school tease her, but they have no idea what she's capable of.
Maybe she could earn their respect by winning the blue ribbon in
the upcoming Air Show. Or maybe something even better will happen -
something involving her best-ever invention, a Boy Scout troop in
peril, and even the mayor himself!
Take one power-waling grandma and mix her with two high-energy
fraternal twins, and before long it's hard to tell who's chasing
whom. This magical mixture rolls off the pages of cartoonist Steve
Breen's first collection of "Grand Avenue" strips. Twins Michael,
who wants to be a Shakespearean actor, and Gabby, a billionaire in
the making, keep the postman, neighbors, and each other on the run
- with Grandma Kate not far behind. Since it's debut in 1999,
"Grand Avenue" has captured the hearts and tickled the funny bones
of readers in more than 125 newspapers nationwide.
