Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
It's August in Minnesota. The cornstalks have grown taller than the cars, and the plums are ripe for the picking. For Jackie, a city kid on a visit to his three aunts' farm, the simple task of making plum jam becomes an adventure when they meet up with a not-too-friendly farmer who isn't eager to part with his plums...
On this year's visit to his great-aunts' farm, a young boy enjoys all that is involved in making plum jam--even the adventure of getting the plums from Farmer Wilson's tree.
