Book Summary |

As if having the name "Ermaline" isn't bad enough, Ermaline's mother is crazy about safety. She decides to build a dummy to put in the back seat of their car so it will look like they are traveling with a man. The ugly dummy causes even more teasing for poor Ermaline. But when the dummy foils a car thief, Ermaline might have to change her mind.
