Grubby Longjohn's Old Tyme Revue / Lizzie and Miranda's Magic Team - Lizzie Mcguire, Vol 9
Author: Douglas Tuber, Tim Maile, Amy Engelberg, Wendy Engelberg

This book contains episodes "Magic Train" and "Grubby Longjohn's Olde Tyme Revue." — When Lizzie and Miranda discover that old childhood favorite TV show "Clover and Daisy's Magic Train" will be in their town, they decide it would be fun to attend a taping of the show. Lizzie and Miranda are still self-conscious about going to a 'kids' show so th... more »ey try to make themselves look younger. Unfortunately, they're surprised when Ethan walks into Lizzie's room because he's on a tour of Matt's museum of dirt.

Once Lizzie, Miranda and Gordo arrive at the studio they're able to relax and enjoy the show, Lizzie even wins a gift basket. But their high moment suddenly takes a bad turn when they see Kate at the show with two young children. This is too good to pass up so Kate begins calling her friends to let them know who some of Clover and Daisy's biggest fans are.

The next day Lizzie and Miranda try to dress in a more grown up fashion and not worry about what others think, but Kate isn't going to let this moment go. She continues with the teasing until Gordo begins singing Clover and Daisy's song in the courtyard. At first Lizzie and Miranda try to get him to stop because he's drawing everyone's attention to them, but later Lizzie realizes the message in the song is true and you don't have to be a kid to enjoy it. So she defiantly stands up daring the others to admit they also like Clover and Daisy and soon almost everyone has joined her in reliving a bit of their childhood.

The McGuire family members are all psyched about making their annual journey to Grubby Gulch, a 'Wild West' theme park. All except Lizzie, who feels that she's too old for such a 'lame' place. But at least she has Miranda and Gordo going with her. Once they arrive at Grubby Gulch, the place is as lame and embarrassing as Lizzie had remembered it, and Gordo and Miranda agree with her. But at a concession stand, Lizzie meets a cute boy, and Gordo meets a nice-looking girl who invite Lizzie and Gordo to go to the mall with them after work, and they even have a date for Miranda.

But it turns out that Mr. McGuire has scored some hard-to-get tickets for Grubby Longjohn's Old Tyme Revue, a Western singalong stage show which takes place the same time they're supposed to go to the mall. So Lizzie comes up with a plan: the three of them will fake illness so the can get out of going to the Revue and head to the mall. Mom and Dad reminisce about the good times they had, and wistfully note that with Lizzie on the verge of going to high school and growing up, this may be the last family trip to Grubby Gulch. Lizzie suddenly realizes how much these family outings mean to her parents. But she, Gordo and Miranda still pull their fake sickness act, and her parents and Matt go to the Revue without them. Once there, Sam and Jo lament that the show won't be the same without the kids there singing along (Matt's in a 'food coma' after loading up on eats all day!)

But not to worry -- Lizzie shows up after all, enjoying the time with her parents, even if it means singing 'Oh, Susannah!'
