Ginger Pye

By: Eleanor Estes

Narrated by: Kate Forbes

Winner of the Newbery Medal

Meet the marvelous Pyes—

There is Mrs. Pye, the youngest mother in town;

Mr. Pye, a famous bird man, who handles all the nation’s important bird problems;

Rachel Pye, who is so reasonable she can make unreasonable ideas sound like good ones;

Jerry Pye, who knows about rocks of all sorts and plans to grow up to be a rock man;

Uncle Bennie, who is Jerry and Rachel’s uncle—even though he’s only three years old.

Lastly is Ginger Pye, the “intellectual dog,” who Jerry bought for a hard-earned dollar. The most famous pup in all of Cranbury, Ginger knows tons of tricks, is as loyal as he is smart, and steals the hearts of everyone he meets … until someone steals him!

“The book’s charm lies in its telling, in its humor, in its true awareness of the strength of feeling and imagination, of pain and ecstasy, that is part of childhood.”—Chicago Sunday Tribune
