Chloe's summer was off to a great start--until her skateboard broke. Her dad tells her to get a summer job to learn responsibility and earn enough money for a new one.

It's like pet sitting, but way weirder. Aligned to Common Core Standards and correlated to state standards. Calico is an imprint of Magic Wagon, a division of ABDO.
