Bookroo's summary
Mabel, the only kid on her block, finds herself lonely when her neighbors are too busy to play. With her loyal dog, Jack, she invents thrilling games like one-footed roller-skating and Super Ball bowling. As their fun escalates, even the grown-ups become curious about the excitement they're missing. Will Mabel's creativity turn the day around and bring everyone together?
From the publisher
The only kid on her block, Mabel can usually count on her grown-up neighbors for a game or two. Not today, though. Everyone is busy, and Mabel is a bit lonely . . . until she and her canine sidekick, Jack, think up idea after idea. There’s one-footed roller-skating and Super Ball bowling and enough rambunctious fun that even the grown-ups wonder what they’re missing. All they have to do is ask Mabel, a brand-new character who may just be the favorite cousin of Eloise or Olivia.
