Description
To save her business, a young entrepreneur dreams bigger than ever before
When she wanted a new bike, Janie started doing odd jobs around the neighborhood for a dollar an hour. She promised her clients that no job was too big or too small-and Kid Power was born. By the end of the summer, she had regular clients, employees, and a steady stream of income-all the makings of a tiny business empire. But after Labor Day, summer work vanished, and Kid Power was no more.
Janie is about to give up on the business when she realizes that there will be snow on the ground soon-snow that needs shoveling. She reinvents Kid Power as a cold-weather company, doing all the winter chores that people will pay her to do. But when the money starts rolling in, so does trouble. Kid Power may be headed for the deep freeze.
