Illustrated by
Heather Ross.
Determined to follow in the footsteps of her discoverer great-grandfather, eight-year-old Iva Honeycutt (alias Iva Honeysuckle) attempts to find centuries-old buried treasure. Her adventure is thwarted at every turn by her irritating cousin, Heaven--but Iva eventually realizes she may need Heaven's help after all. The story is almost too precious, but idiosyncratic characters and Ross's occasional drawings add appeal.
