BLUEBERRY BONANZA NICHOLAS PRESTON, THIRD GRADER, NAMED RACCOON
RIVER'S TOP BUSINESSMAN OF THE YEAR. How did that happen? Nico is a blueberry guy. No doubt about it. He's been taking care of his family's backyard blueberry patch since he was a little kid. And this summer, it's more important than ever.
Nico's got big plans for their bumper crop. But first he'll have to save the fruit fromthe bear, who seems to love nothing better than eating blueberries. Then he'll have to get some help for the harvest--a lot of help. Last, he's going to need to sell all those blueberries!
Good thing he's got plenty of ideas and friends, and plain old grit.
