Description
Ellis loves popcorn. No, she REALLY loves popcorn. It's serious.
So
when her school and her dads ban all snack foods-INCLUDING
POPCORN-Ellis won't listen. But when she tries to quietly sneak her
favorite salty snack, one kernel refuses to pop. LOUDLY. Soon, the
kernel has sprouted a face, arms, and legs! He's alive, his name is
Popcorn Bob, and he is NOT in a good mood. He is HANGRY.
Will Ellis be able to keep Bob a secret until she can get rid of him? (And after a few days with him, will she still want to?)
