Description

Claudia's family is on vacation in Florida for her great-grandpa Cortez's birthday, and somehow, she gets stuck baby-sitting her three younger cousins while everyone else has fun at the beach.

Quick Summary

Imagine being stuck watching three wild cousins while everyone else soaks up the sun at the beach, turning a dream vacation into a hilariously chaotic babysitting gig. Kids will crack up at Claudia's desperate attempts to keep her little cousins from causing mayhem while secretly longing to join the fun. If your kid loves the goofy family drama in "Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Double Down a Wimpy Kid: Double Down Wimpy Kid" or the underdog humor of "Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toilets the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants," they'll totally relate to Claudia's bumpy ride. This quick, witty read is perfect for kids in grades 4 through 6 who enjoy stories about everyday mishaps with an extra dose of humor.
