I'm going to be a bridesmaid.

Mat, Lynette and me.

Long, pink shiny dresses and flowers in our hair.

Leading Miss McKenzie down the aisle to disaster.

I think I'm going to puke ...

When Blue's favourite teacher announces she's engaged, Blue thinks she must have lost her mind. Why would Miss McKenzie want to get married? Especially to someone named James Linley Welsh-Pearson! Surely it couldn't be because she loves him - could it?

Can Blue stop the wedding in time or will Miss McKenzie leave Hardbake Plains ... forever? Ages 8+
