Callie on the Cape Carolyn Parker

Adventures in boats teach Callie that she is more powerful than she thought. Callie is having a crappy summer. Her two best friends don't like each other, her parents aren't getting along and her favorite teacher is a criminal. In addition, her glamorous friend, Liza is chasing after Ned, the boy she likes. Several boating adventures later, Callie discovers that being smart and resourceful is just as cool as being Liza, and that being herself is okay, even if it means being without Ned.
