A brand-new amusement park will soon be built on the grounds of Benjamin Pratt's school. It seems like the fulfilment of a dream! Ben has recently been unsure whether he will enjoy an amusement park right in the midst of his town, what with all the buses, the traffic, and the eight dollar pieces of pizza. Everything will alter as a result. Ben is also not thrilled with all the recent changes in his life, such as the fact that his father has moved out and is now residing in the harbour on what was once the "family" sailboat. It could be good if the school just stayed how it is right now. He enjoys his school. loves it, in fact. It is more than 200 years old and is situated next to the waterfront.
