The Corn Coin: Treasure Hunting

By Jessie Cooper

The story is based on the adventure of Kerry and Omar on their road to winning a treasure competition that had been advertised by the local newspaper. While playing in the field Kerry picks a coin that she thinks will win her the competition but turns out to be a fake coin. This incident weighs her down but she is motivated again when Matt Thorn, a classmate who is always mean to them submits an old China teacup. Kerry is accompanied by Omar as her mother takes them to the park where they try to find anything that could win them the competition with no luck. The next time we see the two friends is in the pack with Kerry’s parents. Kerry still angry with herself does not want to do anything, but her father urges her to accompany him as he takes the dog to the top of the hill. At the top of the hill, their dog, Barker, runs off to a muddy hole and starts digging. What the dog finds is what both Kerry and Omar have been wishing to find all along.
