Perfect for the whole family, Young Whit and the Shell Game takes readers on an exciting journey with Whit as he embarks on a train trip to Texas with his friend Emmy. The pair visits his relatives on a ranch and attends the Texas Centennial Fair, a grand event filled with movie stars, dignitaries, and thrilling attractions.
