About
the Book
Emma has a new dilemma. Her traveling soccer
team has its first game in Washington, DC, and she wishes Annie, the
family’s totally cool Irish nanny, can be her team chaperone. Mom wants to
go, but Mom doesn’t know the difference between a shin guard and a soccer
ball. Not only that, she’d never let Emma’s ferret stay at the
hotel. And the ferret is their good luck charm. Finally, Mom doesn’t
really understand Emma’s problem with Katie, the ball hog on the team who
has been trying to take over Emma’s position. Then there’s the
problem of the two pets that are hiding in Annie’s apartment on the third
floor. How does Emma solve so many problems all at once? With her usual
cleverness and drive, she finds out that families and soccer teams have a lot in
common.
PATRICIA HERMES says that many of Emma’s dilemmas were
inspired by her own five children, who had many wild escapades of their
own. A former teacher, Ms. Hermes lives in Fairfield,
Connecticut. When not writing, she enjoys speaking at schools and
conferences, reading, running, playing the piano, visiting children and friends,
and traveling.
