Weevil

Weinville "Weevil" Poston, 17, has everything-a caring family, trusted friends Kitty and Gray, and more money than he can spend. What more could he want? Weevil would like to be able to walk, to be independent, that's what. Penelope "Penny" Fox, 17, is hopeful. She has just moved back to Idaho, where she is closer to the treasured memories of happy times with her father. Maybe in a new school Penny won't be overshadowed by her TV-star twin sister, Pippa. Maybe she can make friends that are hers alone-fellow science girl Kitty Clements, for example. And maybe Penny can find evidence to prove that her mother isn't really a murderer. Beverly Taylor has written a play, quite a feat for a high-school teacher. Deep inside, she knows Ice Cream is good, with none other than Pippa Fox in the starring role and a haunting song written by Gray Hunter. If only Ice Cream could somehow reach beyond the walls of Snake River High, it could be a hit in the real world of entertainment. Then into Beverly's life steps Mark Powell, Pippa's agent. Sometimes dreams come true. Sometimes they don't.
