Get a Job, Creep
by Greyson Mann
When Gerald's parents decide it's time for him to learn the value of an emerald, he sets out to get the perfect summer job. Wolf-walking, anyone? Baby-zombie-sitting? Llama grooming? Gerald isn't exactly loving his options. When his mom starts selling vitamins and minerals, Gerald comes up with a sales idea of his own—a BIG idea. But he's going to need some help. After he hires a few friends, they start raking in the emeralds. Gerald is going to be rich! He can see it already! But his fortune might come with a pretty big price tag, too.
