From the Back Cover
Gene travels the world with his grandfather, legendary jazz musician, 'Cherokee' Crawford. Adventure, excitement, and music--what more could he need?The answer, says his Aunt Joan, is a sensible routine, a proper education and discipline. She will do anything to get him away from Cherokee, and finally succeeds.Living with Joan and wimpy cousin Wesley is torture for Gene. The only music allowed in the house is the hum of vacuum cleaner! He can't even practice his beloved clarinet. Is this the end of his dream of following in Cherokee's footsteps?Escape seems the only solution--but life has a lot more surprises in store for Gene.
About the Author
Creina Mansfield was born in Bristol in 1949. She studied literature at Cambridge and became a teacher of English at secondary school level. She lived in Dublin for a number of years and is now living in Macclesfield, Cheshire, England with her husband and two teenage sons. Her first book, Fairchild was published in Hong Kong. Cherokee, Creina's first book with The O'Brien Press, was published in 1994, followed by My Nasty Neighbours in 1995. Her last books are It Wasn't Me, the story of how Jack deals with the school bully, and Snip Snip for younger readers. Creina's writing has been praised as 'original and compulsive' by Books Ireland and her books have been very favourably reviewed.
