Lucy Rose is still not crazy about her parents’ separation, but she is crazy about her upcoming summer vacation. Her big plans for the summer include (1) writing down everything that happens in her not-so-boring life in her brand-new journal, (2) going to summer day camp with her best friend Jonique and making a keychain for her mother’s birthday, and (3) waiting for the very special but highly secretive trip her father has planned for her 9th birthday. But of course, when plans are made, they are bound to be broken. Will a pack of apricot-hungry squirrels and a rude girl named Ashley at camp ruin Lucy Rose’s carefully planned summer, or will she figure out a way to make sure everything goes as planned?
