Summary of the Book
Rusty isn't what you would call an adventurous lad, but the most amazing things happen to happen around him all the time. In these stories, you will find him having to deal with his grandfather's pet python and Uncle Ken. While visiting his father in Java, Rusty survives a plane crash in the Arabian Sea. When he is in India, readers will find him reviving his grandma's days as a young girl through an old photograph. Suddenly, things take a different turn as something unexpected results in Rusty having to leave Dehra. What do you think his future holds for him now? This book will be a great read for young children and adults too.
