Benjamin Pratts school is about to become the site of a new amusement park. It sounds like a dream come true! But lately, Ben has been wondering if hes going to like an amusement park in the middle of his townwith all the buses and traffic and eight dollar slices of pizza. Its 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. Its over 200 years old and sits right on the harbor. The playground has ocean breezes and the classrooms have million dollar viewsMILLION DOLLAR views. And after a chanceand finalrun-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!

Dont think Ben, his friend Jill (and the tag-along Robert) can ruin a multimillion dollar real estate deal? Then you dont know...
