Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;Chicken? Abner is not a chicken, no matter what his brother Derek says. But when it comes to giving a speech in front of the whole town, Abner is . . . well . . . he's more than a little nervous.
nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;Then his sister Tate has an idea--bravery lessons. And the first one? Eat a roasted grasshopper. But Abner forgot something important. There's magic in the ground under his family's house and grasshoppers hatch from eggs laid in the ground. So what, exactly, would happen if a kid ate a grasshopper that had been soaking up magic all year long? BOING!
nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;Lynne Jonell follows up her Minnesota Book Award finalist, Texas Bluebonnet Master List choice, and Junior Library Guild selection Hamster Magic with a third story of the Willow family's rowdy run-ins with mixed-up magic.
"A Stepping Stone Book."
To prove he is brave enough to portray his ancestor in a town parade, Abner Willow eats a bowlful of fried grasshoppers and suddenly gains the magical ability to leap and jump.
