Old Uncle Clementine Jones, who struck it rich on Goldstrike Mountain, tells the most amazing stories. What is a box with his name on it doing in a broken down old treehouse?To answer that question, Clementine promises to give Ollie the family inheritance in the box for his twelfth birthday if he will sign the Treehouse Treaty--a covenent agreement where Ollie promises to "guard with his life, steward carefully, and use wisely" the contents of the box no matter what it says. Ollie, his father, and Uncle Clem restore the treehouse to its former glory. He signs the treaty, takes the treaty pledge, and the Gold Nugget Chronicles are opened to him.But Ollie feels foolish when it's not what expects. He thinks Uncle Clementine pranked him and walks away angry and discouraged.

What must Ollie discover to secure the Gold Nugget legacy that Clementine Jones gave him so it won't be lost? How can he fix things after he breaks the Treehouse Treaty? What does he learn about making choices and solving riddles? Is there really a Gold Mine Map in the Gold Nugget Chronicles?
