When Jenny Archer is given a used camera by her grandparents, she can think of many other presents she would rather have received. That, however, is before she discovers that her favorite magazine is holding a photo contest. Terrific prizes will be given to the best photographs with the best titles, so Jenny goes off on a whirlwind picture-taking spree.
Her dog, Barkley, doesn't seem to be the best of subjects, and neither does her goldfish, but then Jenny thinks she has taken a picture of a neighbor trying to kill her husband's dog. Jenny is shocked, but even more shocking is the idea that the neighbor might come after the person who took the picture!

Ellen Conford is the well-loved author of more than thirty books, including several about the irrepressible Jenny Archer. She lives in Great Neck, New York.
Grade 2-4-When Jenny Archer's grandparents give her their old camera, she begins to look at things in a new light. She decides to enter a photo contest, but has trouble coming up with an appropriate, exciting subject. When she does, her attempts at candid shots cause her to misinterpret her subjects' actions and remarks, creating complications and strife throughout the neighborhood. The black-and-white drawings add to the overall simplicity of the plot in this easy-to-read, beginning chapter book. As in other titles about Jenny, her naivete and vivid imagination get her into predictable scraps, and she is dependent on her irrepressible charm to pull her through.
