For his half of the story, Rus dreams about becoming an astronaut but worries about being able to afford tuition at his chosen university (to which he gets accepted), but fortunately after a brief treasure hunt at the junkyard the kids are able to unearth a suitcase full of cash (and another suitcase full of baseball cards, which I think could actually be worth more, depending).

The conflicts wrapped up a little too quickly and easily for me--I think you could spend an entire series on each of the characters and their challenges, and still have room for more, but this was a quick, positive story and something that many kids will enjoy.
