Synopsis
Martin Bridge returns for more slice-of-life adventures in this installment in the widely acclaimed chapter-book series. In "Keyboard," Martin's summer is off to an unharmonious start when his best friends Alex and Stuart are grounded for accidentally damaging Polar Pete's ice-cream truck. Meanwhile, Martin's Mother won't stop practicing on her new electronic keyboard -- and she's driving him around the bend. He's so grumpy that he doesn't feel like helping his friends when they come up with a water-sprinkler-symphony scheme to help pay for their accident. Will Martin change his tune and add some much-needed harmony to his summer? In "Rope," Laila Moffat joins the Junior Badgers, much to Martin's chagrin. A keener and know-it-all, Laila just wants to win more badges. Martin doesn't plan to make it easy for her. Though Laila ends up proving herself Badger-worthy, Martin sure doesn't treat her like a friend should. As the competition for more badges begins to heat up, Martin finds himself with conflicting loyalties.

About the Author
Jessica Scott Kerrin is the author of the bestselling Martin Bridge series, inspired by the misadventures of her husband and son. Her first novel, Martin Bridge: Ready for Takeoff! was named an ALA Notable Children's Book and placed on the Horn Book Fanfare List. Kerrin grew up on the Canadian prairies, but now lives with her family and pet tortoise in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
From Booklist
In the first of two stories, Martin’s mother takes up the electronic keyboard and practices with great enthusiasm but no talent at all. In the next, Laila joins the Junior Badgers but gets the cold shoulder from every boy in the troop. Each situation evokes an emotional shift and, eventually, an empathetic response in Martin. Like other books in the sensitively written Martin Bridge series, this features wide-spaced lines, a large font, and an illustration on nearly every page. Loosely connected to the second story, the appended instructions for building a marshmallow catapult are practical and promising. Grades 2-4. --Carolyn Phelan
