Kendra immediately goes into shock. What will he be like? What if he's doofy? What will they do all summer?
Luckily, the parents have planned a Serendipity Scavenger Hunt that will take Kendra, Frank, and Oscar all over New York City. The Statue of Liberty, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the United Nations, and more welcome them as the unlikely trio explores the greatest city in the world. They even visit set of a famous TV soap opera!
It's a summer of discovery for the Serendipities, but will Kendra and Frank be the main attraction?
Danziger received numerous honors, including: Parent's Choice Awards, International Reading Association - Children's Book Council Awards, a IRA-CBC Children's Choice Award and many nominations for state reading and library association awards.
Known as a flamboyantly funny and deeply honest writer and speaker, Paula Danziger knew how to relate to young readers at their level. She was vital, funny, and compassionate. She knew how kids felt, what made them laugh, what they wore, collected, read, and played with. From collecting novelty toys that would make any teacher cringe, to wearing jangly earrings, funky glasses and shoes covered with beads and sequins, Paula Danziger had a direct line into kids' hearts and funnybones. She will be missed always.
In Paula's memory, The Amber Brown Fund has been established to bring authors and illustrators to schools and libraries which otherwise could not afford them. Donations may be sent to The Amber Brown Fund/ SCBWI Museum of Children’s Books, 8271 Beverly Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90048.
