Sunny makes a splash

Holm, Jennifer L.,


Kirkus Starred, August 2021. "It's summer, and Sunny is bored. Most of her friends are out of town. Her mom wants her to baby-sit way more than Sunny wants to baby-sit. There's nothing good on TV. The only place that's cool (in a not-boring sense) and cool (in a not-hot sense) is the community pool. Sunny loves going there--and loves it even more when she's offered a job at the snack shack. Soon she's flinging fries and serving soft ice-cream like a pro--with the assistance of the very sweet boy who works with her. Sunny's mom isn't sure Sunny should be quite so independent. But Sunny is definitely sure: Life is best when it's free swim"--Provided by publisher.
