Four kids. Nine days. One yard nobody else will touch.
Toby Whitfield has forty-one dollars saved in a peanut butter jar and his heart set on a sixty-dollar bicycle. But when the city tapes a yellow notice to Miss Alma Bright's front door, everything changes. She has fourteen days to clear her overgrown yard-or face a fine she cannot afford.
Certain he can help, Toby promises to finish the entire job by Saturday. He does not consult his friends first. He does not ask where six truckloads of brush will go. And he definitely does not ask who will pay the disposal fees.
When Toby realizes the mistake could cost every dollar in his bicycle jar, he decides to fix it in secret. But the Mustard Seed Club is built on more than hard work. It is built on honesty, shared responsibility, and learning that accepting help can require just as much courage as giving it.
Warm, funny, and heartfelt, The Mustard Seed Club: Book One-The Yard follows four neighborhood kids as they take on a job slightly bigger than they are-and discover how one small act of faith can grow into something far greater.
Inside Book One:
- Eleven short, engaging chapters for newly independent readers
- Twenty-three original illustrations
- The Club Notebook, with activity pages for planning a service project
- A thoughtful discussion guide for families, classrooms, book clubs, and Sunday school
Perfect for readers ages 7-10 who enjoy friendship stories, neighborhood adventures, meaningful humor, and gently woven Christian themes.
