It's tough for eleven-year-old Ned -- or Jelly Belly, as he's known at
school -- to stop eating. At four feet eight inches tall, he weighs 109
pounds, and he keeps growing -- wider! When his parents send him to a
sleepaway diet camp, he and his bunkmates can't quite give up their old
habits. Nightly "cheating" adventures keep the boys plump, betraying
their secret trips. When Ned finally realizes there's only one way to
lose weight for good, his whole family is glad to help -- except
Grandma. Grandma loves to cook for Ned and is hurt when he rejects her
treats. Can he resist temptation without hurting his grandma and
himself?
