Born and raised in isolation in a wealthy, eccentric family, Sandy is shocked when he, his parents, and their servants become victims of a vicious plot by his greedy uncles to incapacitate them and take their money.

Liz says:

“Told like a slapstick comedy, this story is funny, nonsensical and amazing. Kids love this book. It’s perfect for 5th and 6th graders. I always tell kids that this is the most ridiculous book I’ve ever read, but I LOVE it! Right from the start you will see how silly the book is when you are told the main character’s name, Horatio Alger Huntington Ackerman – whose initials spell HAHA. This is pure enjoyment.”
