Betsy's busy Summer

This book was written by Carolyn Haywood. It is about Betsy, the same Betsy as in B is for Betsy and all of those books except this is her summer stories, whereas those were her school stories as I categorize them. In this book, Betsy's next door neighbors the Jacksons are putting up a swimming pool. This in itself was enough to make all Betsy's friends very excited, especially when Mr Jackson said they could all swim in it when there was water in it. But to ad to that, Billy decided that the sidewalk was hot enough to fry an egg on, and he and Betsy made a lemonade stand with their very own "Razburyaide", only five cents a glass.
I recommend this book to anybody who likes selling lemonade(the "make your own" type), eating watermelon, swimming, or going shopping by yourself.
