Sheila Tubman and her family are spending the summer in Tarrytown. Sheila is disappointed because she won’t be going to Disneyland, but brightens up when she learns that she will have her own room and not have to share with Libby, her sister. Sheila gets off to a rough start in Tarrytown (spiders, dogs, ghosts), but soon meets some neighbors, Mouse, Sondra, and Jane. She even gets to go to day camp where she participates in arts and crafts in addition to swimming lessons and a play. What Sheila thought would be a horrible summer turns out to be completely different than what she would have thought.
Sometimes things don’t go quite as we planned or how we would like them to be, but it is important to have an open mind, try new things, and make the most out of what might seem to be a bad situation. This may not be easy, but the first step is to be willing to give it a try. It is only then that things will begin to turn around and get better.
