Like Pickle Juice on a Cookie


Eleanor is an eight year old who is struggling with something we all must face.  Saying goodbye to someone you dearly love who must move away can be a hard time, and Eleanor is not exception.  She struggles with the loss of her beloved babysitter, Bibi, who must move to Florida and take care of her sick father.  How will Eleanor deal with this upheaval in her life, and will she ever be as close to her new babysitter Natalie?  Eleanor learns some great life lessons and gains more than she ever thought she could in this quick and fun read.  As a 2012-2013 Bluebonnet Award Nominee, it too is a must read.  Enjoy!
