About “Peter Graves”

Peter Graves is a mischievous boy who accidentally destroys the house of Houghton Furlong, a gentlemanly scientist and inventor of an antigravity material called Furloy. After the accident, Peter agrees to spend the summer with Houghton to earn $45,000 to rebuild the house, using six Furloy balls—each with an antigravity pull of 25 pounds-force—that survived the wreckage.
