Elmer is scheduled to be cut down to make way for a new swimming-pool complex and Grandma is trying to save him, but Annie wants that swimming pool--and so do all her classmates. Now she must endure all the other fourth graders asking her embarrassing questions and that pesky Leroy Kirk calling her a tree lover. However, as Annie considers what Elmer means to her town and to herself, she begins to think that maybe Grandma's not so crazy after all. <p/>Adorable illustrations perfectly capture Annie's scheme to save Elmer--with the help of her teacher, her best friend, a zany trio of parachuting Elvis impersonators, and, yes, even Grandma.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>DARLEEN BAILEY BEARD's books include <i>The Flimflam Man </i>and <i>Operation Clean Sweep</i>, an ALA Amelia Bloomer Project Recommended Title.
