Financial Garden Quest

Patrick Voss

Sinossi

In Financial Garden Quest, eleven-year-old Selin trades volunteer hours for tokens in an abandoned Thornridge greenhouse. With three special beds—Quick-Save Crops, Growth Investments, and Community Shares—she learns budgeting, investing, risk management, and social responsibility. From compost purchases and emergency funds to market pricing and charity deliveries, every token allocation teaches a real money lesson. Alongside her friends Jai, Mari, and Owen, Selin faces pests, rainy days, and unexpected expenses, all while recording profits in her trusty greenhouse journal. By season’s end, she’s harvested more than vegetables—she’s grown invaluable financial skills rooted in teamwork and nature’s cycle.

Cousins Sarah and Janie unearth a tragic event in their small Southern town’s history in this witty middle grade novel that’s perfect for fans of Stella by Starlight, The Ghosts of Tupelo Landing, and As Brave as You.
 
Twelve-year-old Sarah is finally in charge. At last, she can spend her summer months reading her favorite science books and bossing around her younger brother, Ellis, instead of being worked to the bone by their overly strict grandmother, Mrs. Greene. But when their cousin, Janie arrives for a visit, Sarah’s plans are completely squashed.
 
Janie has a knack for getting into trouble and asks Sarah to take her to Creek Church: a landmark of their small town that she heard was haunted. It’s also off-limits. Janie’s sticky fingers lead Sarah, Ellis, and his best friend, Jasper, to uncover a deep-seated part of the town’s past. With a bit of luck, this foursome will heal the place they call home and the people within it they call family.
