Gabby #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeGabby Hyatt attempts to impress a young woman named Myrna by taking her for a demonstration drive of an expensive Aristocrat automobile, hoping to outshine his rival Dean who lacks a car. When a car dealer grants Gabby an extended test drive, Gabby enjoys a series of humorous misadventures, including attempting to play tennis with Myrna where his clumsiness causes chaos on the court. The story concludes with Gabby at an ice cream parlor, where he is tricked into working for the proprietor and ends up running the business, ultimately winning over the customers and impressing Myrna once more.
Gabby gets drafted as a temporary truant officer by Principal Duckworth and tasked with nabbing the school's most notorious hookey-player—a job made trickier when Gabby and his pal Algy track down the wrong troublemaker. What starts as a bungled manhunt in a pool hall spirals into something far more sinister when they stumble onto a criminal operation run by the very people they were chasing.
When Miss Proom insists that Gabby and his pal Peahead Wilson star in a Shakespeare production, the two teens quickly prove they're better suited for chaos than the stage—turning backstage into a disaster zone that would make the Bard himself wince. Later, when their friend needs a date for the big dance, Gabby and Peahead take it upon themselves to make him compatible with an athletic new girl named Gwen by cramming crash courses in tennis, horseback riding, archery, and golf—with hilariously exhausting results.
Gabby Hyatt and Peahead Wilson start a baby-sitting service to make some quick cash, and their first job seems like a dream when they're hired to watch a boy named Chester while his parents go out. But Chester proves to be anything but angelic, leading the two hustlers into a chaotic evening—until Chester's aunt Doris shows up and changes everything about how the night unfolds.
Gabby Hyatt picks up a bargain self-help book and decides to follow its first step toward success: landing a job. With friends Peahead Wilson and Rusty cheering him on, he marches into Happy's ice cream parlor and talks his way into managing the place—only to discover that running a business is a lot messier and more chaotic than the book promised. As disaster piles on disaster, Gabby learns that following one step out of a hundred might not be quite enough to turn his life around.
