CHAPTER
1
It was hot outside. The perfect day to jump into a gigantic, cold pool.
Only the pool in front of me was on TV. It was part of a commercial. Before I could start daydreaming about jumping in, the camera went to a man with a big smile.
Summer is here! It’s time to buy a pool! We have inground pools, aboveground pools, hot tubs, and tanning beds!
I pressed the minus button on the remote control. That much noise wasn’t good for anybody.
Piper? What did I tell you about watching too much TV?
Mom asked.
I thought for a minute. I stared up at the ceiling. I think staring at the ceiling helps me think better.
Um . . .
I had nothing.
Mom was staring at the TV. That’s where we’re going,
she said, a smile slowly replacing the frown on her face. That’s my new job.
I looked at the TV. The news was on, and it was just a guy talking.
The commercial before that,
Mom said. That’s my new job.
The pool place?
I asked, sounding shrieky as I stood up. That was the most exciting news ever. When she had talked about it earlier, it sounded like a place where they sold chairs and stuff. She didn’t mention they had real pools!
My mom works lots of different jobs, but only for short times. That means I get to go on new adventures, like the circus and a school principal’s office. Each adventure brought new friends!
But before we could have this next adventure, we had to get food for the week, do laundry, and help to tidy up around Nanna’s house. We started staying with Nanna when Mom got a job at a school forty-five minutes away. That was lots of driving, but now Mom has a job that is only two minutes away from Nanna’s house and it’s at a pool place. That is just magnificent.
Magnificent
is a new word I learned. I’m trying it out. Mag-nif-i-cent!
Mom told me I was dawdling and she wasn’t going to wait around all day, missy.
Plus, she had a surprise for me. Surprises were good. Surprises maybe meant we
