As usual, Lowry delivers tight, page-turning prose, plenty of humor, and characters right out of readers' neighborhoods.--Kirkus Reviews
What could possibly go wrong when Anastasia Krupnik walks to a mailbox early one morning with two packages and a dog? A mail mix-up of a most embarrassing kind. Instead of mailing the letter, she deposits her dog's morning business! As her school Values class debates moral issues and the local police confiscate the corner mailbox, Anastasia faces a dilemma of her own. Should she confess? What is the right thing to do? With her characteristic integrity and humor, Anastasia weighs her options.
It was an honest mistake. But what happens when a small, embarrassing accident turns into a federal investigation?
- A Classic School Story: Anastasia's Values class is supposed to be about hypothetical problems, but suddenly her own choices have very real-world consequences.
- Funny Family Story: From her poet father to her artist mother and quirky little brother Sam, the Krupniks face every crisis--even one involving a mailbox--with wit and heart.
- Doing the Right Thing: Confessing seems impossible, but keeping the secret is eating her alive. Anastasia has to figure out what her values really mean when nobody is watching.
- A Heartfelt Coming of Age Story: Navigating eighth grade is tough enough without becoming a person of interest to the police.
