Beschreibung
In the small river town of Pine Hollow, four boys with nothing but scrap lumber, spare rope, and stubborn ingenuity decide to build something bigger than any backyard project the town has ever seen. This is a rollicking DIY adventure for young readers, packed with backyard inventions, treehouse building, kite-flying and homemade aeroplanes, boat-building, summer camping, woodcraft and trapping, land-yacht racing, and a winter ice-boat showdown that will decide it all. When word spreads of the town's first-ever Founders' Cup Exposition - a fall contest for the best boy-built invention in the county - the Pine Hollow Outdoor Club squares off against a slicker, better-funded rival gang from across the river. From water-wheels and weather-vanes in the spring, to marlinspike seamanship and a catamaran race in the summer, to fire-engine trucks, pushmobiles, and tree-hut hideouts in the fall, and finally a breakneck ice-boat race across the frozen river in the dead of winter, this is a wholesome, hands-on, four-season saga about self-reliance, teamwork, friendly rivalry, and the plain, old-fashioned satisfaction of building something with your own two hands. Along the way: a sabotaged raft, a runaway camping trip gone wrong, a storm that threatens the whole exposition, and a secret the rival gang has been hiding that could change everything. Perfect for fans of early-1900s Americana, boy-inventor stories, outdoor survival adventure, and hands-on maker culture.
