FCF aka Big Kid Storytime – Dairy Queen by Catherine Gilbert Murdock

DJ Swank, “little” sister to two of Red Bend’s most successful high school football players has discovered… she’s a cow. Brian Nelson, QB on their rival football team, has been ordered by his coach to help out in Swankville. He and DJ did NOT hit it off. When her father was injured she quit basketball, buried all those college recruitment letters, and is now single handidly – mostly – running the Swank family dairy farm. Brian has been ordered to help with the haying, the milking, cleaning and painting the barn and whatever DJ has up her sleeve. Oh yeah, and SHE is supposed to coach HIM! When Brian points out that she “is a cow” because she does whatever she’s told without question or protest, no matter what the sacrifice, he really ticks DJ off. He also gets her thinking.
