AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Nothing is going right for ten-year old Callie - she has fought with her best friend, her sister and brothers torment her, and the new house is a letdown. She longs to see Grandpa Cameron who lives on the other side of the city, so that he can put things right - which is exactly what he does'. (Source: bookseller's website.)
