The Raft 

by Jim LaMarche
Nicky was sure of one thing:  he didn’t want to go!  But, spending a summer in the country with his “river rat” grandmother might change Nicky’s attitudes toward everything!   Will he take a giant step and discover the beauty and wonder of nature by walking in her shoes? **
