Continuing the group of stories that began with Hamster Magic; in this installment, the Willow family faces the necessity of getting a new lawn mower because the old one has died. That is until Abner finds an old fashioned push mower in the shed. The kids pull it out, sprinkle some handfuls of grass on it -- and -- just like magic, the lawnmower takes off to mow the huge lawn. There are several unexpected adventures along the way, but the lawn is mowed, and Mr. and Mrs. Willow are very proud of the kids in the end. Written by Lynne Jonell, the illustrations by Brandon Dorman add to the humor of the story; and the book will be enjoyed by readers in grades 2-4. Just perfect for the start of summer!
