She smells it. She loves it. But even money can't answer the questions that keep Raspberry awake at night. Will she and Momma ever move out of the projects?

A haunting story of greed and forgiveness by the award-winning author of The Skin I'm In, this unforgettable novel will keep you glued to every page. Bank on it.

The Money Room
by Eloise Jarvis McgrawMargaret K McElderry books' description: Thirteen-year-old Scott and his younger sister Melinda expected new-school problems but not the baffling, peculiar events of their first weeks on the Oregon farm their great-grandfather had left their mother. They had always heard talk of his "Money Room" but never a hint of where - or what-it was. Now, with no friends yet and their mother absorbed in her new job, they were determined to find whatever treasure the old house held. Spurred on by a passage from an old diary and the startling contents of a tin box they found in the attic, Scott and Lindy plunged into a deepening mystery, one that soon had them wondering uneasily who else was trying to find the Money Room, and what would happen if he got there first. This highly entertaining adventure by the author of A Really 'Weird Summer, which won the Mystery Writers of America 1978 "Edgar" award for "the best juvenile mystery of the year," reflects a warm family feeling, a fine sense of place, and a sure narrative gift.

Money to Burn
by E. M. GoldmanMatt and Lewis are expecting a long, slow summer, without jobs and without much money. But then they find a suitcase containing $400,000--money that must have belonged to the drug trafficker who died outside of town. Maybe they should turn the money in--but Lewis needs new glasses, and wouldn't mind giving up his second-hand girl's bike, either. But if they keep the money, how will Matt and Lewis explain where they got it? Things might be easier if Matt's father weren't dating a member of the local police force. Or if Lewis had a room to himself, instead of sharing one with his baby nephew, Joey. But then Matt and Lewis hatch a plan, a plan that will let them take a trip to Disneyland and do whatever else they can think of with all that cash. Unless, of course, other people know about the money. And those people come looking for it.... In this suspenseful novel, E. M. Goldman has created a tightly paced story that's laced with humor and full of surprises--including the discovery that sometimes money may be a lot more trouble than it's worth.
Money Troubles
by Bill CosbyThis synopsis is taken from the letter to parents written by the psychiatrist, Dr. Poussaint. This letter is included in the book. "In Money Troubles, Little Bill is inspired to buy a telescope after learning about astronomy in school. (Not, it must be said, because he's suddenly become a serious scholar. Instead, he dreams of becoming famous. He'll discover a new comet, and it will be named after him.) The telescope he wants costs $100; he has $47.87 in his bank. To start earning the rest, he washes a neighbor's car, then collects cans and bottles-until he notices another boy, obviously poor, also out scavenging. Little Bill leaves his own cans where the other boy will find them. Little Bill has realized something important: other people may need money more than he does. He takes this lesson further by dropping the telescope idea, donating all his savings to the school's food drive for the poor... and becoming "famous" for contributing the most food. Through his unselfish acts, Little Bill has learned that giving to others can be more satisfying than acquiring a possession he can do without. And he has taken an important step toward understanding what it means to be part of a community."
