Maniac Magee Chapter 31

Chapter 31

Grayson and Maniac do Christmas right. Everyone gets to celebrate, including the baby buffalo who gets a scarf (actually three tied together).
Back at 101 Bandshell Boulevard, gifts are exchanged.
Maniac gives Grayson gloves, a cap and (get the tissues ready) a book. This book is handmade by Maniac and called The Man who Struck Out Willie Mays starring our very own Grayson.
Maniac gets gloves, Krimpets, a new baseball and (get the tissues ready) Grayson's old baseball glove, the one he used all the years he played in the Minors.
101 Bandshell Boulevard could not have gotten any happier.
So, obviously things are about the get really sad. And they do: "five days later the old man was dead" (31.14).
