their gray matter while navigating its many wonders. Will the
energetic Bink win the world's largest donut in the Whack-a-Duck

this wry, warmhearted sequel to the New York Times Book Review Best

All righty, then Celebrate the tall and short of a marvelous
friendship with a new Bink and Gollie adventure.
Gollie is quite sure she has royal blood in her veins, but can Bink
survive her friend's queenly airs -- especially if pancakes are not
part of the deal? Bink wonders what it would be like to be as tall
as her friend, but how far will she stretch her luck to find out?
And when Bink and Gollie long to get their picture into a book of
record holders, where will they find the kudos they seek? Slapstick
and sweetness, drollery and delight abound in this follow-up to the

In a brilliant collaboration, best-selling authors Kate DiCamillo
and Alison McGhee, along with acclaimed illustrator Tony Fucile,
introduce an outrageously funny pair of friends.
Meet Bink and Gollie, two precocious little girls -- one tiny, one
tall, and both utterly irrepressible. Setting out from their
super-deluxe tree house and powered by plenty of peanut butter (for
Bink) and pancakes (for Gollie), they share three comical
adventures involving painfully bright socks, an impromptu trek to
the Andes, and a most unlikely marvelous companion. No matter where
their roller skates take them, at the end of the day they will
always be the very best of friends. Full of quick-witted repartee,
this brainchild of Newbery Medalist Kate DiCamillo and
award-winning author Alison McGhee is a hilarious ode to exuberance
and camaraderie, imagination and adventure, brought to life through
the delightfully kinetic images of Tony Fucile.
