Twelve-year-old AJ is dreading spending the summer with her
uber-strict grandmother--that is, until she's recruited to join Grandma
Jo's heist club--in this hilarious and quirky twist on a summer vacation
story.
AJ does not, under any circumstances, want to spend an entire month
living with her strict Grandma Jo. Not only does her grandmother tell
her how to walk, what to eat, and which rooms she can enter, she fills
all of AJ's free time with boring sewing lessons! Grandma Jo wants
nothing more than to transform her adventurous, fun-loving granddaughter
into a prim and proper lady...and AJ hates it.
But AJ's dull summer takes an exciting turn when she discovers that her
grandmother's "bridge group" is actually a club of crooks! And when
Grandma Jo offers to teach AJ lock picking instead of embroidery in
exchange for help with a few capers, AJ is thrilled to join her
grandmother's madcap band of thieves who claim to steal only for ethical
reasons.
But even the most respectable ladies can hide some truly surprising
secrets, and AJ must decide for herself what it truly means to be one of
the good guys.
