Mouse Henry usually spends his five-dollar allowance right away, but when Super Robot Dude catches his eye, he resolves to start saving for the toy. Accumulating thirty dollars takes longer than he'd thought, what with one unexpected expense after another. Thanks to handy drawings at the top of the cheery childlike illustrations, readers can monitor the rise and fall (and rise) of Henry's fortunes.
