Weslandia
by Paul Fleischman

Outcast.  Different.  Rejected.  Bookworm.  That was Wesley before summer vacation started.  Always inventive, when summer vacation begins, he takes the knowledge he gleaned from books and school to grow his own garden and then, his own unique civilization, complete with a peculiar  plant.  This plant provides his food, clothing, shelter, and fun!  The young entrepreneur who invented his way out of the refining fire now takes on a new role in his new civilization...or is it his old civilization?*
