Und genau hier herrscht ein erbitterter Kampf zwischen zwei Kinderbanden: den wilden Robbins und den Rittern auf Rädern. Beide beanspruchen das letzte unbebaute Stück Grün für sich. Bis der ehrgeizige Bürgermeister dort einen hochmodernen Spielplatz errichten will. Einen Spielplatz, auf den keines der Kinder Bock hat. Nur gut, dass die Robins, angeführt von der furchtlosen und schlauen Rieke, schon einen Plan haben, das zu verhindern.

When Nina Soni hears that her grandmother and cousin are going to visit from India, she can’t wait to be the perfect hostess.

Not surprisingly, things don’t go exactly as she planned.

It’s Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day, and Nina, Kavita, and Jay are all going to create gardens with Mom, a landscape architect. Naturally that’s not enough for Nina, who quickly develops big ideas for an impressive business selling the vegetables she plans to grow. But her plans don’t include managing the problems that inevitably arise, including rabbits, slugs, mosquitos, and more.

Nina Soni is a problem solver—and her latest problem is her little sister Kavita, who is a real embarrassment. Not only does Kavita sing too much, she often gets the lyrics wrong or, even worse, makes up ridiculous songs. What Nina needs is a project—a plan to fix her sister. But one project isn’t really enough, especially during a long rainy school break. Nina is restless. A pile of dirt in the neighbor’s yard is a temptation she can’t resist—a project for Nina, a distraction for Kavita, and something to do to pass the time.
