A quirky-funny book from the author of Unusual Chickens for the
Exceptional Poultry Farmer about a boy whose plans for the summer go
sideways when the ghost of his great-great-grandmother demands his
attention.
HD Schenk is a maker, and his plan for the summer is to build his own
computer and enter it in the county fair.
To earn money for parts, HD has promised to clear out his uncle's
overflowing basement. But there's more in that basement than HD
bargained for. On his first trip down there, a voice only he can hear
starts talking to him. About...sauerkraut?
Who knew the ghost of his great-great-grandmother was haunting an old
pickling crock? She's got a plan, too. She wants HD to help make her
famous recipe for sauerkraut and enter it in the county fair so that she
can be declared pickle queen.
After some initial shock, HD is willing enough to help. This ghost is
family, after all. But only HD can really see and hear his Oma, which is
going to make it hard for her to win on her own...
Kelly Jones spins a wonderfully goofy ghost tale that celebrates
creative problem solving, family ties, and makers of every variety.
