Prairie Schooner

12. Safe Inside Her Book
Max and Worm are hitch-hiking a ride to Chivalry, Montana when a Prairie Schooner pulls up. Dippy Hippie invites them along and seems like a good person.
Two police officers approach The Prairie Schooner; Dip gives Max and Worm alias names: Mike and Sally. The police officer checks out the bus and each child to make sure the story adds up.
Worm is safe inside her book when Joanie continues to questions her. Worm uses her stories as an escape to not deal with the real world.
