Fruit Tramp Kids (Pathfinder Junior Book Club)

Life is hard. It’s the Depression. Jo’s dad has lost the farm and become a fruit picker. At the pickers’ camp Jo befriends Carlos after he is abandoned by his mean stepdad Shorty. But now Shorty wants him back–or else! Hiding from Shorty, Carlos and Jo team up with Dort and her little sister Tiny, and brothers John, Jerry, and Jim. They share a spud roast, a wild ride on old Watermelon George’s horses, a benefit talent show to raise $100 for an operation for Dort’s mother, and several close encounters with Norman, the local bully. Jo narrowly escapes kidnaping by Shorty, and the fruit tramp kids end up in a desperate race to outrun Shorty in his truck. But danger gives way to grace. This is Christian adventure at its finest! —Bobbie Montgomery is a freelance writer with many articles and several books to her credit, including Donkey Cart Kids, Fruit Tramp Kids, Three Blondes in a Honda, and The Cat’s Got Her Tongue.
