A new collection of stories by award-winning author Angela Johnson about Charlie and her adventures on Magnolia Street.

It's summertime, and that means more adventures for Charlie and her friends on Magnolia Street in this collection of short stories by the author of Maniac Monkeys on Magnolia Street. There are lots of comings and goings on the block this summer. One family disappears, while another--the Magic Family--appears from nowhere. Charlie's best friends, Billy and Lump, go off to camp and have their own adventures, and Charlie meets Ashley, a girl who likes to grow things. But perhaps most amazing of all is that Charlie and her practical-joker older brother, Sid (her nemesis), actually join forces to help a neighbor in trouble.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cute sequel to Maniac Monkeys on Magnolia Street
Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2014
Verified Purchase
This is Angela Johnson's sequel to Maniac Monkeys on Magnolia street. She tells the continuing tales of Charlie, and Billy. It is a student favorite in my classroom told in Vignette style. She's' no Katherine Patterson, Jerry Spinelli, or even Barbara Park, but she's good in her own right.
