| Details: |
An unusual and creative boy named Wesley is out of place in his rigid and conventional neighborhood. With school over and summer looming before him, Wesley creates his own society--one that relies on the magical crop that mysteriously sprouts in his backyard garden. Before too long, Wesley is able to use his crop to create clothing, food, ink, mosquito repellent, and shelter. What will the neighbors think of Wesley's new world? Illustrated with acrylic paintings. |
