SUMMER IS AROUND the corner, and the rivalry between the Malloys and the Hatfords is heating up The kids have two weeks to earn money for a fundraising contest sponsored by the local hospital. Those who collect $20 or more for the new children's wing can choose to be in the annual Strawberry Festival Parade or get all the strawberry treats they can eat. There's only one place Caroline Malloy--wants to be: smack dab in the middle of the glamourous Strawberry Queen's float. But how will she earn the money in such a short time? Do the Hatford brothers have moneymaking secrets that they're not telling the girls?
I use this entire series as a read aloud for my fifth grade class. Everyone loves it and clamors for the next book. They line up to borrow the books when I have finished reading them aloud. I have also used them to read to kids at night as a camp counselor (boys and girls) the reaction is always the same: WE WANT MORE!!! Wonderful books :)
