Illustrated by
Marla Frazee.
In this standalone second book, fourth grader Waylon (Waylon!: One Awesome Thing) and classmate Baxter scheme to protect Dumpster Eddy, a stray dog they both love but can't take home. Side story lines involving collaboration at school and at home bring more nuance and meaning to Waylon's dilemmas. Frazee's illustrations deftly capture the story's humor and meaningful moments.
