5.0 stars. Grades 2-4. More laughs from a favorite. Lucy's plans for the summer: she's desperate to make a lanyard key chain, she has to figure out how to rid Madam and Pop's yard of 78 or more squirrels, she needs to come up with a plan for dealing with the absolute pest who is named Ashley and is making Parks and Rec not so much fun, AND she has to come up with a way to stop her parents' from divorcing.

Lucy Rose spends her summer going to Parks & Rec with her best friends Jonique and Melonhead, celebrating her 9th birthday with her father, fighting off apricot-stealing squirrels, and writing about everything that happens in her brand new journal.

Lucy Rose has a great summer vacation trying to protect apricots from squirrels, weaving keychains at Parks and Rec and helping her Mom redecorate the living room.

Lucy Rose and her best friend, Jonique, have a lot to do in the summer.

She also has a few more things to do this summer. She has to get rid of the Squirrels in her grandparents yard because they are eatin More...

Listening to this one too. I like the kids books, they deal with issues but in a way that isn't depressing like adult books.

I loved the voice of Lucy Rose and have stolen my new catch-phrase from this book, which is "perfectly deluxe."
