Oh Boy, Boston! — Patricia Reilly Giff

The Polk Street Kids are coming--on their class trip to Boston. They're going to fly kites on Boston Common, walk the Freedom Trail, and put on a play--with Richard "Beast" Best as Paul Revere. Poor Beast can't remember his costume, or what he's supposed to do in the play. All he knows is that he has Dawn Bosco for a wife. And 16 kids. If only he could fly away, just like his kite! But loyal friends save the day for Beast, in a fun-filled visit to the city of the Bean and the Cod.
