Plot of the One and Only (From Back of Book)

 

"Maryellen wants to stand out, but with five brothers and sisters, it's not so easy. Giving herself a haircut doesn't go quite the way she expects—and when she draws a cartoon of her teacher on the first day of fourth grade, she draws more attention than she wants! At least her drawing skills help her make an interesting new friend. Together they might be able to win the geography bee—but only if Maryellen can find a way to make her old friends overcome their prejudice. The One and Only, the first volume of the Maryellen's stories about growing up in the 1950s, tells how Maryellen learns to standout and be her own person."

Plot of Taking Off (From Back of Book)

"Maryellen has big plans for her birthday, and she's glad when her old pal Davy shows up to help. If only Wayne the Pain would buzz off—but he's stuck to Davy like glue. Maybe her sister Joan was right when she said girls can't be friends with boys in fourth grade. Then, on a family vacation, Maryellen finds out that Joan's not so sure about her own plans. One thing's clear: If Maryellen's going to invent a flying machine, become famous, and get Joan's wedding off the ground, she'll need all the help—and all the friends—she can get. In Taking Off, the second volume of Maryellen's classic stories about growing up in the 1950s, Maryellen's hopes, dreams, and ambitions soar—and she's determined that nothing will stop her from flying high."
