The nerviest girl in the world  Cover Image Book Book

The nerviest girl in the world / Melissa Wiley ; illustrated by Mike Deas.

Wiley, Melissa, (author.). Deas, Mike, 1982- (illustrator.).

Summary:

"Pearl lives on a ranch where her chores include collecting eggs and feeding ornery ostriches. She has three older brothers, who don't coddle her at all. And she knows a thing or two about horses, too. One day, Pearl's brothers get cushy jobs doing stunts for this new form of entertainment called "moving pictures." They're the Daredevil Donnelly Brothers, a Death-Defying Cowboy Trio. Before she knows it, Pearl has stumbled into being a stunt girl herself-and dreams of becoming a star. The only problem is, her mother has no idea what she's up to. And let's just say she wouldn't be too happy to find out that Pearl's been jumping out of burning buildings in her spare time" -- Publisher description.
