Soup & Me — Robert Newton Peck

Soup is back again, getting himself and his best pal Rob into more and better mischief.

From the crisp Vermont spring to the chill of winter, Soup and Rob learn, among other things: not to leave their clothes on the bank of the creek when Janice Riker is around; that Soup's tonsorial talents leave a lot to be desired; to chase a runaway pumpkin down Sutter's hill; to blaze a trail through Mrs. Stetson's marigolds; to have a fight with a turkey; and to provide Miss Kelly with a Christmas she'll never forget.
