THE LIBRARY CARD
By Jerry Spinelli

Mongoose, Brenda, Sonseray, and April have nothing in common…until a mysterious blue card appears as if by magic and begins to change each of their lives.  None of them guesses it at first, but that strange blue card will be their ticket to the past — and to a future they never imagined.

In stories that range from humorous to heartbreaking, Newbery-award-winner Jerry Spinelli reveals the amazing possibilities lurking behind library doors.

Excerpt:
Fingers trembling, eyes on the man at the cash register, Mongoose snatched the Milky Way bar and stuck it in his coat pocket.

He waited for lightning to strike.  For the hand of God to frizzle him on the spot.  The earth to open and swallow him up.  Cops at least.

Nothing.
