The Cabin on Ghostly PondWhen neither of 12-year-old Jo Shaw's parents wanted him around for the summer, he was sent to spend the summer with grandparents he'd never met. But the grandparents turn out to be likeable and he has his own horse and dog with unlimited freedom to roam. Out in the woods, he met Tony, an escapee from a nearby reform school, and came face to face with a future that might be his own. |
