Dana Levy, you did succeed! Another fabulous family filled frolicking story that had me cheering, rooting, and laughing out loud over and over again. Thank you, thank you!

Part of Dana's review is below:

"Since I can't review it objectively, I'll just tell you what I wanted to write. I wanted to write a funny story. I wanted to write about the frustration of being twelve, and knowing you're being unreasonable but not being able to change how you feel. I wanted to write about sisters and social justice and seeing the world from a new perspective. I wanted to write about new friendships, and judging people before you know them. I wanted to write about a diverse family having an all-American vacation. I wanted to write a story that captures how it feels to be walking on that thin line between kid and teenager, and how that walk can be exhilarating, frustrating, and misery-inducing all in the same day.
Did I succeed? Who knows?

This non-traditional family is not nearly as much fun or 'together' as the Fletcher family by the same author. I am disappointed. ( )

Sometimes she glares at me so hard, I expect the chair behind me to burst into sizzling flames. Ah! The disdain of a twelve-year old. If we could channel it, we could power a small city.
