Description

Sixth-grader Eric Greene lives with his father, a supermarket employee, in a small apartment. It's just been the two of them since Eric's mother passed away. Life in the apartment isn't that bad; after all, Eric has a sitting job for disabled Jimmy on the first floor that earns him a couple of bucks a week. One day, Jimmy shows Eric an ad for a pair of red cowboy boots that he's got his heart set on. Although at first Eric doesn't understand what a boy in a wheelchair could want with cowboy boots, he starts mulling over how he could possibly come up with enough money to surprise him with the boots. He doesn't have the cash. But he does have a few small treasures, and he knows a few other people with some similar treasures. If he could just trade up for a few items he knows have some value, he just might be able to pull it off. But can he do it in time? A heartwarming and original story by Eloise McGraw. 150 pages, pb. - Jess
