"A must-have for every collection. Honey’s snappy dialogue and off-beat humor are a refreshing surprise." —Kliatt
In this heartwarming tale of growing up, a crew of neighborhood pals—Henni, Danielle, Zev, Frank, and Briquette, who call themselves "the Stella Street Mob"—head off to Cauldron Bay for a vacation in an old beach house. When a new girl, Tara, intrudes on the trip, reveling in boys and trendy fashions, the friendships begin to unravel with new social challenges and pressures. This fun and moving story touches on the struggles of being a teenager and the excitement of new adventures and relationships still left to discover.
