Greg Kenton has two obsessions -- making money and his long-standing competition with his annoying neighbor, Maura Shaw. So when Greg discovers that Maura is cutting into his booming Chunky Comics business with her own original illustrated minibooks, he's ready to declare war.
The problem is, Greg has to admit that Maura's books are good, and soon the longtime enemies become unlikely business partners. But their budding partnership is threatened when the principal bans the sale of their comics in school.
Suddenly, the two former rivals find themselves united against an adversary tougher than they ever were to each other. Will their enterprise -- and their friendship -- prevail?
首見少年理財小說:前所未有的校園小說題材,探討教育界極少碰觸的理財議題。葛雷天生是個賺錢高手。有天,他突然發覺,學校裡幾乎每位小朋友身上都帶著零用錢,把這幾百位學生的零用錢全加起來的話…哇!學校就像一個超級大撲滿,他現在只缺個榔頭來把撲滿敲開。
他想在學校賣些小朋友喜歡的小東西,像是糖果、玩具、漫畫之類的,但是老師和校長會同意嗎?葛雷這些賺錢的點子到底行不行?特別是他的死對頭毛拉在搶他的生意。
