Dead End in Norvelt

By: Jack Gantos; Pages: 341

In my book Dead End in Norvelt a boy named Jack Gantos has his plans of an adventures summer when he gets grounded and is forced to do unusual and illegal chores for an elderly neighbor named Miss Volker. What I read this week was chapter 23. In this chapter Jack is worried that his father gave Mrs. Vinyl a heart attack by driving his plain. Miss Volker assures Jack that she is fine, and has talked to her afterwards while eating one of Jack´s mom´s casseroles, but she was still concerned so she asked Jack to pay her a visit. And unfortunately, she was dead. It looked like she died while having a midnight snack. And in the fridge there was 1 of Jack´s mom´s casseroles.
