(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Chad Dezern. An aggressive fairy insists that grumpy Mr. Gum keep his garden tidy. Dog Jake sees it as his personal playground. What will Mr. Gum do to Jake, and how will Polly, a kind little girl, stop him? The story relies too much on random jokes, but the fast pace and humor will keep kids reading. Bubbly black-and-white drawings illustrate most pages.
