"Manny Tremaine didn't want to live in the country at all, and certainly not in the Amish community in Pennsylvania where his mother and stepfather had settled...Manny did get a garden, and he grew such an amazing number of beans that he was glad to accept the neighbors' help in selling them. ...Only after he has worked hard and faced danger with the Glicks does Manny realize that if he is to be treated as a grown up he must act like one. In the process, he discovers that both of his wishes have come true - a garden of his own and a wonderful new friend." [dust jacket]
