The Prisoner of Pineapple Place introduces readers to Jeremiah, a nine-year-old boy living on a magical, invisible street called Pineapple Place. This extraordinary street travels from city to city and prevents its residents from aging. However, Jeremiah's growing boredom and curiosity lead him to make contact with a girl from the 'outside world,' setting in motion a series of events that threaten the very existence and nature of Pineapple Place. This chapter book explores themes of growing up, the desire for change, the allure of the unknown, and the meaning of belonging. It is suitable for children aged 4-11, with younger readers enjoying it as a read-aloud and older children engaging with it independently.
Pineapple Place, an invisible street that moves from city to city and keeps its inhabitants the same age forever, is threatened with change when nine-year-old Jeremiah becomes bored and makes contact with the outside world.
