Chapter 11 Summary

At Jonah’s encouragement, Felicity begins working on poems for the talent show. Jonah must help his mom after school, so Felicity rides with Frannie back to Aunt Cleo’s apartment. Day Grissom once again asks Felicity to say hi to Cleo for him. Felicity has done this several times now, but Cleo always responds dismissively.

When Felicity gets home, Cleo demands she take Biscuit for a walk because the dog is restless and chewing on Cleo’s quilt squares. Felicity and Frannie take Biscuit out. Felicity carries the dog down the stairs and sets her down. Before Frannie can get a good hold on her leash, Biscuit takes off running. The girls chase the dog down a hill into a park near the apartments. Finally, they come to a stop because a man has caught Biscuit. He’s dressed like a cowboy with a banjo slung across his back.

The girls thank the man, but before they leave, he asks them if they know Cleo Harness and if she lives in the apartments. Felicity is skeptical at first, but because Biscuit likes the man, she decides to trust him. Felicity asks what he wants with Cleo. He replies that he’s an old friend who wanted to stop by and say hi.
