{"product_id":"9780887764981","title":"Of Mice and Nutcrackers","description":"Readers first met the Peeler family as they went on a hilarious summer road trip in \u003ci\u003eThe Way to Schenectady\u003c\/i\u003e. Now winter has come and with it the school holiday pageant. Jane Peeler, who loves to be the boss at all times, is directing her class production of \u003ci\u003eThe Nutcracker\u003c\/i\u003e. All does not go as well as she planned as she finds the plot of the presentation creeping into her own life. First, there are problems at school, caused by a gym teacher who wants the gym for basketball, not for rehearsal space. Then there’s a budding romance in the cast. At home, Dad has come down with an illness, and Grandma — grumpy, chain-smoking, profane Grandma — comes back on the scene as a reluctant baby-sitter to Jane and her younger brothers Bill and Bernie.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe fun that ensues is pure Scrimger, and is sure to delight his legion of fans.","brand":"Richard Scrimger (CA)","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback Trade paperback (US)","offer_id":53172016251040,"sku":"9780887764981","price":20.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8637\/5072\/files\/BNCImageAPI_ae13ea0a-e8bb-4b75-92a4-4dbf452c02a8.jpg?v=1768337731","url":"https:\/\/rivendell-books.com\/products\/9780887764981","provider":"Rivendell Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
