It's summer and Sunny is bored. Most of her friends are out of town. Her mum wants her to babysit way more than Sunny wants to babysit. 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 mum isn't sure Sunny should be quite so independent. But Sunny is definitely sure: Life is best when it's free to swim.
