"It's the first day of summer and Rachel's thirteenth birthday. She can't wait to head to the lake with her best friend, Micah. But as summer unfolds, every day seems to get more complicated. Her "fun" new job taking care of the neighbors' farm animals quickly becomes a challenge, whether she's being pecked by chickens or having to dodge a charging pig at feeding time. At home, her parents are more worried about money than usual, and their arguments...

When Zach's plan to ask Rachel, his crush, to a school dance is thwarted by a newcomer's plan to embarrass her and ruin her chances of becoming class president, he tries to recover his powers and stop the plot.
