Jennifer Murdley's Toad (Magic Shop Books) - Plot & Excerpts
"The solution to my problem. I just remembered that you owe me a favor, sister dear. And not just a little favor. A big favor, from a genuine, unbreakable pledge. And as I was squatting there in the dust kitties under your bed, I suddenly realized just what I wanted." "Really?" asked Jennifer. She felt her knees begin to wobble. Skippy nodded. "It's nothing much. Just a kiss from my favorite sister." Jennifer swallowed, but said nothing. "You owe me," said Skippy ominously. "You said it, and you can't break it." Jennifer closed her eyes. She felt a lump forming in her throat. A toad. She was going to have to become a toad. But what choice did she have? Skippy had the goods on her. She could refuse, but that would make her a double-down-dirty rotten-go-backer. Was it worth becoming a toad just to keep her promise? What was a promise worth? What was she worth? 77 "I'm waiting, sister dear," said Skippy. What was Skippy worth, when you came right down to it? Not much, she decided. But that wasn't the issue.
