Verity Very Nelson's story continues as she teams up with her cousin and frenemy to save a community pool in this humorous and heartfelt standalone middle grade graphic novel from New York Times bestselling and Eisner Award-winning author Hope Larson.
Verity Very Nelson is poised to have the perfect summer.
That is, until her mom breaks the news--they're going to Wisconsin to help get her grandma's house ready for sale. Very's devastated to be missing an activist workshop and lake trip with her best friends, but her mom says it's important for them to spend time with Grandma, who just moved into assisted living care.
As she's settling in, Very happens upon a shuttered pool. Her cousin Maya explains that funding has dried up for the former gathering place, and now, the only place to swim is the exclusive, expensive country club.
Very knows a great cause when she sees it. She and her friends spring into action and rally the community around the public pool--but an unlikely source shares a ruinous tip that threatens its future forever. Can Very finish what she started, or will she leave the town worse off than when she arrived?
