About this book
Dawn can't wait for her trip to California. Besides all the sun and fun, it's her first visit since her brother, Jeff, moved back to live with their dad. California is better than Dawn ever remembered it. The beaches are beautiful, Disneyland is a blast, and Californians eat healthy food! Plus, Dawn's best friend, Sunny, has even started her own baby-sitting club.
After one wonderful week, Dawn begins to think she might want to stay in California, like Jeff.
Dawn's a California girl at heart -- but could she really leave Stoneybrook for good?
