Teddy Mars: Almost a World Record Breaker

217 pp. | HarperCollins/Tegen | March, 2015 | Trade ISBN 978-0-06-227810-4 $16.99
(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Trevor Spencer. Ten-year-old Teddy Mars is obsessed with breaking a world record and standing out in his large and boisterous family. After getting a job tending a neighbor's homing pigeons, Teddy's world record might be within reach...if Teddy can avoid his hero-worshiping little brother. Believable family relationships, plenty of humor and heart, and emotive black-and-white spot art elevate the familiar plot.
