Setting out from their super-deluxe tree house and powered by plenty of peanut butter (for Bink) and pancakes (for Gollie), they share three comical adventures involving painfully bright socks, an impromptu trek to the Andes, and a most unlikely marvelous companion. No matter where their roller skates take them, at the end of the day they will always be the very best of friends. Full of quick-witted repartee, this brainchild of Newbery Medalist Kate DiCamillo and award-winning author Alison McGhee is a hilarious ode to exuberance and camaraderie, imagination and adventure, brought to life through the delightfully kinetic images of Tony Fucile.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eKate DiCamillo\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eThe Magician's Elephant, \u003c\/i\u003ea \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestseller;\u003ci\u003e The Tale of Despereaux, \u003c\/i\u003ewhich was awarded the Newbery Medal; \u003ci\u003eBecause of Winn-Dixie, \u003c\/i\u003ea Newbery Honor book; and six books starring Mercy Watson, including the Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor Book \u003ci\u003eMercy Watson Goes for a Ride. \u003c\/i\u003eShe lives in Minneapolis. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlison McGhee\u003c\/b\u003e is the award-winning author of books for all ages, including \u003ci\u003eThe Song of Middle C, \u003c\/i\u003eillustrated by Scott Menchin; the #1 \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestseller \u003ci\u003eSomeday, \u003c\/i\u003e illustrated by Peter H.
