Chapter 1

In the quiet neighborhood of Willowbrook, a remarkable group of friends had a secret. Every evening, after the sun had set and their plates were cleared, Jasper, Richard, Jamar, and Carlos would assemble at their covert meeting spot. But this was no ordinary secret location—a super-secret meeting spot so concealed that no soul could discover its whereabouts. Only these four tightly knit comrades knew this extraordinary place, so clandestine that it remained elusive to every other inhabitant of our vast planet.

The boys entered the treehouse one by one. First was Jasper, the official president and owner of the treehouse. Jasper was ten years old and a great football fan.

Jasper also had a haircut like his dad’s because that was the only way his mom knew how to cut hair. He had a round face, a huge smile, and a nose that worked hard to keep his glasses in place. Oh, and Jasper had big mussels. Well, his mussels were as big as any 10-year-old boy could imagine. Oh, aan Jasper’s dad, Joe, owned the tire store in
