Al Capone Shines My Shoes


Awards

  • Nominated for New Jersey Garden State Children's Book Award 2012
  • Winner of Northern California Independent Booksellers Association Award 2010

Overview

What do you do when your neighbors are a bunch of hit men, con men, and mad dog murderers? Well, if you're Moose Flanagan, you ask the most notorious convict of them all, Al Capone, for help. But when that convict comes through for youÑand then asks you for a favor in returnÑsuddenly it's a whole different ball game. Picking up where the NewberyÐHonor winning Al Capone Does My Shirts left off, this lively second romp featuring Moose, his friends, and some of Alcatraz's ""finest"" is just as satisfying as the first.
