This time she keeps both feet firmly on the grond. But with Miss Pickerell it isn't always necessary to go into outer space to find excitement. It's a search for uranium that intrigues her now and an encounter with a most unusual young sheriff. Miss Pickerell, of course, is solidly on the side of the law!
Miss Pickerell's now-famous cow is very much part of the story - as are her nephews, Homer and Harry. And her knowledge of geology (after all her rock collection won first prize at the state fair!) comes in very handy - especially when she hears this all-important clicks on the Geiger counter.
Boys and girls will love this new Pickerell adventure and Paul Galdone's warm, humorous pictures. And they are going to learn lots of interesting things about atomic science and the mysteries of the Geiger counter.
