Illustrated by
Erwin Madrid.
Louisa Brody is determined to prove her father's innocence against charges of stealing, and when her friend Jessamine tells her about a wee man living in the hazel grove, Louisa knows she's found the real culprit. But who will believe her? Wiley weaves an engaging story with classic elements and a deceptively simple but satisfying plot. Madrid's delicate sketches add depth and humor.
