Benjamin Pratt's school is about to become the site of a new amusement
park. It sounds like a dream come true! But lately, Ben has been wonder
if he's going to like an amusement park in the middle of his town--with
all the buses and traffic and eight dollar slices of pizza. It's going
to change everything. And, Ben is not so big on all the new changes in
his life, like how his dad has moved out and started living in the
marina on what used to be the "family" sailboat. Maybe it would be nice
if the school just stayed as it is. He likes the school. Loves it,
actually. It's over 200 years old and sits right on the harbor. The
playground has ocean breezes and the classrooms have million dollar
views...MILLION DOLLAR views. And after a chance--and final--run-in with
the school janitor, Ben starts to discover that these MILLION DOLLAR
views have a lot to do with the deal to sell the school property. But,
as much as the town wants to believe it, the school does not belong to
the local government. It belongs to the CHILDREN and these children have
the right to defend it! Don't think Ben, his friend Jill (and the
tag-along Robert) can ruin a multimillion dollar real estate deal? Then
you don't know the history and the power of the Keepers of the School. A
suspenseful six book series, book one, We the Children, starts the
battle on land and on sea. It's a race to keep the school from turning
into a ticket booth and these kids are about to discover just how
threatening a little knowledge can be.
