Thirteen-year-old Lisa approaches her summer vacation at her grandmother’s farmhouse in rural Tennessee with reservations. Is it going to bore her out of her mind? What’s she going to do without her friends from school? What if she cannot chat with her friends on Facebook? Or if her cellphone’s got no signal?
Unexpectedly, a tumble down a hill brings her face to face with country kid E.J. and his Golden Retriever, Scoot. It marks the start of several weeks of fun, magical, touching, and even hilarious experiences, with her motorcycle-riding grandmother and E.J., who becomes a good friend.
Lisa learns about how much happiness there is in sharing the little joys of life with friends and loved ones. In the rolling hills of the Tennessee Valley, E.J. shares with Lisa a very special secret about “his pond”, where he often spent lazy summer days fishing. And to his surprise, Grandma Frasier shows him another secret about the same pond, which neither he nor his father had ever known about. Lisa and E.J. discover how their different talents complement each other so well, and resolve to cooperate when the new school semester begins. Lisa’s newly Facebook- and Internet-savvy grandmother shows her a neat way to achieve her dreams, even when faced with the hectic life of the big city which she was returning to at summer’s end.
