Buzzy and the River Rats: Book I: Buzzy Moves in Volume 1

by John Clarke Hoffman

It is the autumn of 1954 in the Catskill Mountain town of Delhi, NY. John Hoffman, Buzzy Fancher, and the other members of the River Rat Gang are in eighth grade at Delaware Academy. The excitement of Halloween is in the air. Their adventures begin with an elaborate prank involving an antique fire engine. Winter brings tobogganing and romance, spring an encounter with the tough uptown Trucker gang in Stutz's junkyard, and summer a rain on a girl scout campout at the Pine Hill Reserve. The Buzzy stories are for all ages. They capture the excitement, friendships, mishaps and young romance of growing up in 1950's small-town America.
