Primrose Squarp - the invincible heroine of the Newbery Honor Book Everything on a Waffle - returns for another adventure-filled year in Coal Harbor.

Her parents, once lost at sea, are safe at home, just as she always believed they would be. But now other people and places that Primrose loves are in precarious circumstances. For one thing, Uncle Jack and Miss Bowzer can't - or won't - connect, no matter how hard Primrose tries to move their romance along. There's also the logging of Mendolay Mountain, which threatens the woods Primrose has always known.

And then there's her new friend Ked, the foster kid who has just moved in with Bert and Evie. Ked has been picked up and plunked down in different homes his whole troubled life. And even though Evie has explained that it's not possible, Primrose wishes there were some way Ked could stay in Coal Harbor forever.

Through a year of turmoil, Primrose is undaunted as she tries to save what matters most to her. Profound and insightful, hilarious and smart, National Book Award and Newbery Honor winner Polly Horvath's new novel features an unforgettable heroine, a cast of unpredictable, irresistible characters...and recipes!
