☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeCandy features two stories: "Jonesty" follows a boy named Marvin who returns from vacation bearing down on his studies, prompting his father to encourage him, though the effort proves difficult—Marvin must complete his schoolwork before his next vacation begins in a year. In the main story, Candy agrees to help Mrs. Dawson with an art appreciation project involving photographs, hoping to win a contest and convince Ted to take his schooling seriously; Mrs. Dawson plans to keep their collaboration secret, though a lodge dinner and various complications ensue before Candy's scheme succeeds in inspiring Ted to focus on his studies.
When Ted Dawson becomes obsessed with impressing his teacher, Miss Templeton, by winning an art appreciation contest, Candy O'Connor decides to teach him a lesson—by submitting a photo that shows him for what he really is: a baby. As Ted's crush threatens to derail both his schoolwork and his friendship with Candy, she and Mrs. Dawson cook up a scheme to help him see that chasing after an older woman might not be the wisest move. Will this humbling entry finally get Ted's head on straight, or will it only make matters worse?
