"Oh, fishsticks, tartar, and a side of fries!"

Runaway ferrets, former BFF drama-trauma, and one GIGANTIC (and very, very public) belly flop. No doubt about it, Callie Boone's summer is CRUMMY. The only things keeping her afloat are dive practice with her dad and a top-secret Olympic swim dream. Then a boy named Hoot-who is NOT her boyfriend!-moves in next door and turns her world upside down and right-side up.

Just when things start looking up, real disaster strikes and Callie feels like she's stuck at the top of the high diving board with no way down. What if she can't fix all the things that need fixing? She'll just have to try! With a little luck, a solid plan, swimming, and a whole lot of teamwork, she just might make it through.

After all, she's Callie Boone!
