A beach trip, a big secret, and one unforgettable summer.
Amy, Lilly, and Dawn have been best friends forever - at least, that's what Amy thought. So when Amy's family invites everyone on a week-long beach vacation, the girls are convinced it's going to be the best trip ever. But someone else has a different idea. With unexpected twists and plenty of sunshine, this friendship adventure follows three girls as they try to figure out what's really going on - and whether their bond is strong enough to survive.
Amy's Sandy Summer is a children's chapter book packed with all the heart and big feelings that come with the end of elementary school. And despite Amy's challenges in keeping her friends together, the book is filled with plenty of lighthearted scenes where everything does, in fact, go right, which can feel so rare in life.
