Review: A fun, chucked full of chaos book with a great message

This book is refreshing, funny and somehow, sneaks in a great message too.The main character, a 14 year-old girl, has been given the responsibility by her mother, not only to make sure that her difficult siblings make through a vacation with Grandma, but also to convince Grandma to move into a retirement home. If the girl accomplishes this, she'll get a huge treat - a month at science camp.This is a fun tale, so much that I was caught laughing out loud by my family more than once. I loved the main characters attitude, especially in combination with her hyper, younger brother and snobby, older sister. I wouldn't say there was a fast moving plot in this book, but there didn't need to be. Between these three characters (and then a Grandma with more zest than a sixteen year old), the chaos is complete.I especially enjoyed the message in this (such an important one): not everyone has the same life-style or standards or even can. And that's okay.This is a great story, packed full of fun, which kids will love. I can only recommend this.
