(4) 1-3 Willie discovers two neighbors are going hungry, so she uses the money she collected selling Girl Scout cookies to feed them. But now she's got to find a way to earn back the money she owes--and fast. Too much tangential exposition slackens the narrative tension in this already slight tale; nevertheless, Wesley's assembled an appealing cast of characters who react in authentically childlike ways.
