<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"This very funny story is Henry's straight-faced journal of his summer activities. Henry, who has an interest in nature and a talent for making things happen, establishes the firm of Henry Reed, Inc., Research, and with neighbor Midge as an ally, engages in a series of projects usually profitable to them, but often hazardous to the adults involved".--ALA Booklist.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Henry Reed has arrived in Grover's Corner--and the town will never be the same. While spending the summer with his aunt and uncle, Henry comes up with a sure-fire money-making project: Henry Reed, Inc., Research. Henry's neighbor, Midge Glass, has an even more sure-fire hit: Reed and Glass, Inc. Now with Henry's ingenious mind and Midge's practical reasoning, Reed and Class Inc. turns into a huge success--while creating more bewildering and outrageous schemes than the townfold could have imagined.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Henry's experiments in 'free enterprise' make hilarious reading.--<i>The Chicago Tribune</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Robert McCloskey (1914-2003) wrote and illustrated some of the most honored and enduring children's books ever published.
