Eleven Miles to Oshkosh

Can't recall the main characters name but he was a short kid with a big imagination His Grammpa helped him do wonderfully funny things. He was on a mission to find out who killed his Dad. So very interesting and it cost a lot less for the book months ago than it does now! Go figure. Got it for my grandson and he loved it~
