INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Kerley, Barbara

Following Baxter

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Gilbert Ford. Voluble, irrepressible Jordie is delighted to spend time with the dog owned by her new neighbor, Professor Reese. The elderly physicist also has a laboratory equipped with a teleportation device, and she welcomes Jordie and brother TJ as young lab assistants. Combining Jordie's self-discipline struggles in school and at home with science, sci-fi, and mystery, Kerley's adventure has wide appeal.
