Murdock, Catherine Gilbert.
DAIRY QUEEN
New York : Houghton Mifflin, 2006
She may be “just a girl,” but D.J. knows football. She has always helped her older brothers’ practice, and now the coach of her rival high school’s team has asked her to train their quarterback and toughen him up. On top of that, she’s trying to keep the family farm up and running as her ailing father and working mother try to make ends meet. But as the summer wears on, D.J. begins to realize that she is ready to step out of her role as a helper and practice buddy and step up to the line on her own. This funny, high-spirited character will have readers cheering in Dairy Queen, by Catherine Murdock. (New Hampshire Isinglass Teen Read Award committee)
