Violet the Pilot

By the time she s two years old, Violet Van Winkle can fi x nearly any appliance in the house. And by eight she s building elaborate fl ying machines from scratch mind-boggling contraptions such as the Tubbubbler, the Bicycopter, and the Wing-a-ma-jig. The kids at school tease her, but they have no idea what she s capable of. Maybe she could earn their respect by winning the blue ribbon in the upcoming Air Show. Or maybe something even better will happen something involving her bestever invention, a Boy Scout troop in peril, and even the mayor himself!
