On the Road to Mr. Mineo's

On the Road to Mr. Mineo's
by Barbara O'Connor

It's summer vacation in Meadville, South Carolina and Stella has fallen into the same, boring, daily routine of spending her days playing cards with her friend Gerald.   Longing for something new to happen, she is excited to see a one-legged pigeon flying nearby and drags a reluctant Gerald along in her many attempts to catch it.  However, Stella and Gerald aren't the only ones looking for the pigeon.  Others have spotted it and soon this unusual pigeon is touching the lives of many people all over Meadville.

This is a warm, touching story with many funny moments.  I enjoyed the variety of unique characters in this story and how all of their different stories were tied together by this one pigeon.
