The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent shape, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments!
Jean Kerr, author of Please Don't Eat the Daisies, says this book, Freaky Friday, is "dear and funny and charming and full of true things. Young people will gobble it up... and if I am in any way typical (I am in every way typical) so will their middle-aged mothers."
You are not going to believe me, nobody in their right minds could possibly believe me, but it's true, really it is!
When I woke up this morning, I found I'd turned into my mother. There I was, in my mother's bed, with my feet reaching all the way to the bottom, and my father sleeping in the other bed. I had on my mother's nightgown, and a ring on my left hand, I mean her left hand, and lumps and pins all over my head.
"I think that must be the rollers," I said to myself, "and if I have my mother's hair, I probably have her face, too."
I decided to take a look at myself in the bathroom mirror. After all, you don't turn into your mother every day of the week; maybe I was imagining it—or dreaming.
Well, I wasn't...
